Pariṇīta (परिणीत) refers to “marriage”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.5 (“The Tripuras are fascinated).—Accordingly, as Arihan said to the Lord of the Three Cities: “[...] It is unnecessary to divide the people into different castes. When all are men who is superior and who is inferior? Old men say that creation began with Brahmā. He begot two sons the famous Dakṣa and Marīci. Kaśyapa, the son of Marīci married (pariṇīta) thirteen of the sweet-eyed daughters of Dakṣa, they say, in accordance with righteous path. But people of modern times whose intelligence and valour are but a modicum unnecessarily wrangle over the fact whether this is proper or improper. [...]”.
