Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationSamupāgata (समुपागत) refers to “rushing towards someone” (in battle), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.4.15 (“Gaṇeśa’s battle”).—Accordingly, after Gaṇeśa spoke to Śiva’s attendants: “When thus taunted and rebuked they rushed towards him with big batons, decorating their arms and taking up different kinds of weapons. Gnashing their teeth, grunting and bellowing and calling out ‘See, See’, the Gaṇas rushed at him (samupāgata). Nandin came first and caught hold of his leg. He pulled at it. Bhṛṅgin then rushed at him and caught hold of his other leg. [...]”.
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.
