In Hinduism
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Antardhānagatā (अन्तर्धानगता) refers to the “disappearance” (of illusion), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.23 (“Outraging the modesty of Vṛndā”).—Accordingly, as Sanatkumāra said to Vyāsa: “Unable to see Pārvatī, the king of Daityas returned to the battle ground. The groups of deceptive Gandharvas vanished. It was only then that the bull-bannered deity regained awareness of the surroundings. On seeing the illusion vanished (antardhānagatā), Śiva woke up. Following the way of the world, the annihilator became very furious. [...]”.
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.
