Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Puranic EncyclopediaPuṣparāgaprākāra (पुष्परागप्राकार).—(RATNAŚĀLĀ). The Purāṇas state about a fort made of diamonds called Puṣparāga shining red above the heavenly place called Maṇidvīpa above Brahmaloka. This fort is seven yojanas high. All things inside it, the ground, the trees, the birds, the animals, plants, creepers and gardens are puṣparāga-studded and look red like saffron. Therefore the fort is called Ratnaśālā also. All the dikpālakas of the universe live with their family and attendants in this fort. (12th Skandha, Devī Bhāgavata).
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.
