Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationAbhāgya (अभाग्य) refers to “(those who are) unfortunate”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.7 (“The gods pray”).—Accordingly, as Sanatkumāra narrated to Vyāsa: “[...] Indra and others looked at one another’s face. They were much agitated. They spoke in faltering words. They cursed their fate. Some gods said ‘We are sinners’. Others said ‘We are unfortunate (abhāgya)’. Still others said ‘The great Asuras are very fortunate’. In the meantime on hearing their multifarious voices, Kumbhodara of excessive refulgence beat the gods with a baton. [...]”.
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.
