In Hinduism
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationĀtmasaṃbhāvita (आत्मसंभावित) refers to one who is “self-conceited”, and is used by the evil-minded Dakṣa to describe Śiva, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.2.27. Accordingly as Brahmā narrated to Nārada:—“[...] on hearing [Dadhīci’s] words, the foolish and evil-minded Dakṣa became furious in a trice and said mockingly:—‘[...] He is a haughty self-conceited fool (ātmasaṃbhāvita-mūḍha) with false prestige and hostility. He is unworthy of this sacred rite. Hence he is not invited by me.’”.
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.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
