Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationSandigdhamanas (सन्दिग्धमनस्) refers to “having doubt in one’s mind”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.41 (“Description of the Altar-Structure”).—Accordingly, as the Gods said to Nārada: “O Nārada, intelligent one, you appear to be bewildered. Have you been duly honoured by Himavat or not? Tell us in detail. Why have these excellent mountains Maināka, Sahya, Meru and others highly bedecked and of great valour, come here? O Nārada, does the mountain really intend to give his daugther to Śiva or not? What is it that is taking place in the abode of Himavat now? Please tell us. We are having doubts in our minds (sandigdhamanas). Hence we, the heaven-dwellers, ask you. Please say everything, O righteous one, and dispel our suspicions”.
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.
