Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationĀgamanakāraṇa (आगमनकारण) refers to the “cause of someone’s arrival”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.7 (“The gods pray”).—Accordingly, as Sanatkumāra narrated to Vyāsa: “On hearing the words of the gods and others, Śiva accepted the proposal. The lord is worthy of being sought refuge and is also favourably disposed to his devotees. O sage, in the meantime the goddess Pārvatī arrived there with the two sons where Śiva was in conversation with the gods. On seeing Pārvatī come there, Viṣṇu and others were surprised but without agitation they bowed to her in great humility. O sage, they shouted cries of ‘Victory’. But unable to know the cause of her arrival (āgamanakāraṇa), they remained silent. [...]”.
The Purana (पुराण, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences.
