In Hinduism
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationŚivadrohin (शिवद्रोहिन्) or Śaṅkaradrohin refers to an “enemy of Śiva”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.2.35. Accordingly, as Viṣṇu said to Dakṣa:—“[...] there is none to offer us refuge in the three worlds. Who can be the refuge of an enemy of Śiva [viz., śaṅkaradrohin] in this world? [...] On seeing an enemy of Śiva [viz., śivadrohin], Yama gnashes his teeth. He puts him in cauldrons of oil and not otherwise”.
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.
