Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationSarvakāmaphalaprada (सर्वकामफलप्रद) refers to the “bestower of the fruits of all rites” and is used to describe Gaṇeśa, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.4.18 (“Gaṇeśa crowned as the chief of Gaṇas”).—Accordingly, as Śiva, Viṣṇu and Brahmā said to the Gods: “O great gods, just as we three are worshipped in all the three worlds, so also he shall be worshipped by all of you. We are the offsprings of primordial nature. He is also the same and hence worthy of worship. He is the remover of all obstacles and the bestower of the fruits of all rites (sarvakāmaphalaprada). He shall be worshipped first and we shall be worshipped afterwards. If he is not worshipped, we too are not worshipped. If the other deities are worshipped when he is not worshipped, the fruit of that rite will be lost. There is no doubt in this matter”.
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.
