Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationVivāhayogya (विवाहयोग्य) refers to “having attained a marriageable age”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.4.19 (“Gaṇapati’s marriage”).—Accordingly, as Brahmā narrated to Nārada: “[...] The love and affection of the parents towards the six-faced lord and Gaṇeśa increased to a great extent like the moon in the bright half of the month. O celestial sage, once the loving parents Pārvatī and Śiva held a secret talk and discussion. They thought that the two sons had attained to marriageable age (vivāhayogya) and how best their marriage should be celebrated 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.
