Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationAnanyadhī (अनन्यधी) refers to “one whose mind is not fascinated by other things”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.11.—Accordingly, as Himavat (Himālaya) eulogised Śiva: “[...] Today my life has borne fruit, in fact everything connected with me has become fruitful since you have come here. Knowing me to be your slave of great composure, O great lord, you can freely command me. With my mind not fascinated by other things [i.e., ananyadhī] I shall serve you with great pleasure. [...]”.

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.
