Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationDivyauṣadha (दिव्यौषध) refers to “divine herbs”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.15 (“The birth of Jalandhara and his marriage”).—Accordingly, as Sanatkumāra narrated to Vyāsa: “[...] Then a battle between the armies of the gods and Asuras ensued. [...] Bhārgava resuscitated the Asuras killed in the battle with the Vidyā of Amṛtajīvinī and drops of water infused with mantras. The sage Aṅgiras too resuscitated the gods in the battle with the divine herbs (divyauṣadha) frequently brought from the mountain Droṇa. Jalandhara saw the gods restored to life again in the battle. He then spoke angrily to Bhārgava. [...]”.
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 to German]
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.
