Purana and Itihasa (epic history)

Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translation

Ananyagati (अनन्यगति) refers to “having nowhere to go”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.6 (“Prayer to Śiva”).—Accordingly, as the Gods eulogized Śiva: “Obeisance to you, the soul of all, obeisance to Śiva the remover of distress, [...] O Śiva, dear to the gods, save us, the gods who have no other go (ananyagati), by killing all the Asuras instantaneously. We are practically destroyed by the Tripuras. O lord Śiva, they are now deluded by your magic. O lord, they have gone astray from the virtuous path through the expedient taught by Viṣṇu. [...]”.
