Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationSarvārtināśaka (सर्वार्तिनाशक) refers to the “destroyer of the distress (of those who bow)”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.12 (“The Gods go back to their abodes”).—Accordingly, as Maya-Asura eulogized Śiva: “[...] Obeisance to you of variegated forms; to you, the eternal one; obeisance to you who extend beyond all forms. Obeisance to you of divine forms, shapes, and features. Obeisance to the destroyer of the distress of those who bow to you (praṇata-sarvārtināśaka); obeisance to the welfare-hearted; to the creator, sustainer and annihilator of the three worlds. [...]”.
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.
