Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationParamaśobhana (परमशोभन) refers to “having good features”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.7 (“The gods pray”).—Accordingly, after Śiva spoke to the Gods: “On hearing these words of Śiva, the great Ātman, the gods derived more pleasure than Viṣṇu and Brahmā. At his bidding, Viśvakarman made a splendid chariot of good features (paramaśobhana), consisting of all the gods, for the welfare of the people”.
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.
