Hence make arrangements for the chariot, charioteer, divine bow (divyakārmuka) and excellent arrows [rathaṃ ca sārathiṃ divyaṃ kārmukaṃ śaramuttamam] as agreed to by you all. Do not delay. [...]”.
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.
