Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationLoḍita (लोडित) refers to “having churned” (the ocean of milk), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.4.15 (“Gaṇeśa’s battle”).—Accordingly, as Brahmā narrated to Nārada: “[...] None of the weapons of the gods was seen anywhere around the iron club of Gaṇeśa. This wonderful feat was performed by them. A single boy stirred and churned the vast impassable army in the same manner as great mountain churned (loḍita) the ocean of milk formerly. Indra and other gods were struck by him, single-handed. The Gaṇas of Śiva became agitated and distressed then. Gasping frequently for their breath, being utterly shaken by his blows they gathered together and spoke to one another. [...]”.
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.
