Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationDivyadarśana (दिव्यदर्शन) refers to “divine vision”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.9.—Accordingly, as Sage Nārada said to Brahmā:—“O Brahmā, O dear one, O foremost among the devotees of Śiva, O intelligent one, taking pity on me you have narrated a wonderful story to me and have increased my pleasure thereby. O Brahmā, when I, of divine vision [i.e., divyadarśana], had gone to my abode what happened thereafter? Please tell me now”.
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.

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.
