Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationVibhramaddhī (विभ्रमद्धी) refers to “having a confused state of mind”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.43 (“Description of Śiva’s wonderful sport”).—Accordingly, as Brahmā narrated to Nārada: “[...] O sage, on seeing the innumerable Gaṇas, Bhūtas and Pretas, Menakā was terribly frightened instantaneously. On seeing Śiva in their midst, the mother of Pārvatī trembled. [...] She was stunned, tremulous agitated and confused (vibhramaddhī). You said to her ‘This is Śiva’ and pointed Him out to her. On hearing your words she fell on the ground like a tender creeper blown by the wind. Menā the chaste lady was grief-stricken. ‘What is this? I have been deceived for being too ambitious. Of what use is it to see this deformity?’ Saying this, Menakā fell unconscious there in a trice. [...]”.
