Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationSudvārī (सुद्वारी) (or simply Dvārin) refers to “one who stands at the doorway”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.4.15 (“Gaṇeśa’s battle”).—Accordingly, after Gaṇeśa spoke to Śiva’s attendants: “[...] Now none among them stood face to face. Just as deer flee to any direction on seeing a lion, the Gaṇas, who were thousands in number fled in that manner. Then Gaṇeśa returned to doorway and stood there (sudvārī). He was seen as the annihilator of all in the manner of Yama, the terrible god of death at the end of a Kalpa. [...]”.
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.
