Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationĀkhyeya (आख्येय) refers that which “could be said aloud”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.2.21. Accordingly as Brahmā narrated to Nārada:—“[...] When they [viz., Śiva’s Gaṇas (attendants)] went away and He was left alone with Satī, Śiva rejoiced much and sported with her. [...] Many things which could be said aloud (ākhyeya) even in the presence of many, Śiva whispered into her ears in order to see her face”.
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.
