Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationViṣṇuprabodhita (विष्णुप्रबोधित) refers to “being instructed by Viṣṇu”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.44 (“Menā regains consciousness”).—Accordingly, after Viṣṇu spoke to Menā: “O sage, when instructed by Viṣṇu [e.g., viṣṇuprabodhita], Menakā’s mind was somewhat softened. But she did not give up her obduracy. She did not consent to the proposal of giving her daughter to Śiva. Menā was deluded by Śiva’s magic”.
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.
