Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationSuduḥsādhya (सुदुःसाध्य) refers to “(that which is) impossible” [?], according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.1 (“Description of Tripura—the three cities”).—Accordingly, as Brahmā said to the sons of Tāraka-Asura: “[...] If penance is performed for the harassment of the world, it shall be understood as gone. It is only a well-performed (suvihita) penance that can be fruitful. Ponder over this keenly, O faultless ones, desist from seeking immortality. Immortality is impossible (suduḥsādhya) for the gods and the Asuras. It is inaccessible [durlabhaṃ vā suduḥsādhyaṃ mṛtyuṃ]. It cannot be warded off. Hence choose a boon whereby you shall do something equal to your own strength”.
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.
