Purana and Itihasa (epic history)

Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translation

Asvāsthya (अस्वास्थ्य) refers to “sickness”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.5 (“The Tripuras are fascinated).—Accordingly, as Arihan said to the Lord of the Three Cities: “[...] It is said in the Vedas that Bliss is an aspect of the Brahman. That shall be taken as it is. It is false to bring in various alternatives. One shall seek and enjoy happiness as long as the body is hale and hearty, as long as the sense-organs are not impaired and as long as the old age is far off. When there is sickness (asvāsthya), impairment of the sense-organs and old age how can one derive happiness? Hence those who seek happiness shall be prepared to give away even the body. [...]”.
