In Hinduism
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationGadādhārī (गदाधारी) refers to “one who holds the mace” and is used to describe Viṣṇu, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.17 (“The fight between Viṣṇu and Jalandhara”).—Accordingly, as Sanatkumāra narrated to Vyāsa: “[...] By means of his discus Sudarśana [Viṣṇu] diffused his splendour all round. He shone with the brilliant lotus in his hand and offered fearlessness to his devotees. Holding the conch, sword, mace (gadādhārī) and the bow, the heroic deity was very furious [śaṃkhakhaḍgagadāśārṅgadhārī krodhasamanvitaḥ]. He was efficient in the battle using fierce weapons. He produced the twanging sound from his bow and roared aloud. O sage, all the three worlds were filled with its loud sound. [...]”.
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.
