Purana and Itihasa (epic history)

Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translation

Samullāsin (समुल्लासिन्) refers to an “appearance”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.52 (“The bridegroom’s party is fed and Śiva retires to bed”).—Accordingly, as Brahmā narrated to Nārada: “[...] Seated on a gemset throne offered by Menā, Śiva surveyed the bedchamber with pleasure. [...] Gemset mirrors, white chowries, pearl necklaces and gorgeous things were richly displayed. It was unequalled in its divine exquisiteness highly pleasing and richly decorated. It was evincing the powerful influence of the boon granted by Śiva. It appeared (samullāsin) to be a replica of Śiva Loka itself. [...]”.

context information

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
