Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationSvargārthin (स्वर्गार्थिन्) refers to “those who seek heaven”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.7 (“The gods pray”).—Accordingly, as Śiva said to the Gods: “[...] This mantra is highly meritorious and auspicious. It generates the pleasure of the gods. It yields both worlds by enjoyment and salvation, confers cherished desires and brings about the happiness of the devotees of Śiva. It is conducive to blessedness, fame, longevity to those who seek heaven (svargārthin) [svargakāmārthināṃ nṛṇām]. Those who are free from desires derive the benefit of salvation. The man who repeats this mantra in purity, hears or narrates this to anyone, shall attain all desires”.
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.
