Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationHantṛtva (हन्तृत्व) refers to the “matter of quelling (obstacles)”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.4.18 (“Gaṇeśa crowned as the chief of Gaṇas”).—Accordingly, as Śiva said to Gaṇeśa: “O son of Pārvatī, I am pleased, there is no doubt about it. When I am pleased the entire universe is pleased. None will be against the same. Since, even as a boy you showed great valour as Pārvatī’s son, you will remain brilliant and happy always. Let your name be the most auspicious in the matter of quelling obstacles (vighna-hantṛtva). Be the presiding officer of all my Gaṇas and worthy of worship now”.
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.
