Source: archive.org: Nilamata Purana: a cultural and literary studyIrāmañjarīpūjana (इरामञ्जरीपूजन) or Irāmañjarīpūjā is the name of a ceremony that once existed in ancient Kashmir (Kaśmīra) as mentioned in the Nīlamatapurāṇa.—On the day of Irāmañjarī-pūjana—a festival of flowers—the ladies are honoured with presents of flowers and garlands. In another verse we find reference to the women going to fruit-gardens to worship the fruit-giving trees. On Irāmañjarīpūjana, Nīla and the local Nāgas receive, worship along with various other gods and goddesses. Nīla says “Irā is dear to the Nāgas and to me she is specially so, whosoever pays worship to me in an Irā garden with Irā flowers, with him I am pleased excessively”.
The Purana (पुराण, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences. The eighteen mahapuranas total over 400,000 shlokas (metrical couplets) and date to at least several centuries BCE.
