Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationNirbhīta (निर्भीत) refers to “fearlessly”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.13 (“Śiva-Pārvatī dialogue”).—Accordingly, after Śiva permitted Pārvatī to stay by his side: “He, the lord of individual souls, said to Pārvatī in the company of her maids—‘You can serve me everyday You can go (as you please). You can stay here fearlessly [i.e., nirbhīta]’. Saying this, He accepted the goddess in his service. Śiva is free from aberrations. He is a great Yogin, the lord who indulges in different kinds of divine sports. This is the supreme courage of great ascetics possessed of fortitude that though surrounded by obstacles they are not overpowered by them. [...]”.
The Purana (पुराण, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences.
