Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationSunuti (सुनुति) (Cf. Nuti) refers to “eulogy”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.24 (“Śiva consents to marry Pārvatī”).—Accordingly, as Nandīśvara said to Gods: “O Viṣṇu, O Brahmā, O Indra, O gods and O sages, pay heed to my words gratifying to Śiva. If you persist still in your wish that Śiva shall marry, you shall eulogise [i.e., sunuti] with respect and piteous request. O gods, great lord cannot be made subservient by ordinary devotion. The supreme lord does even what shall not be done when moved by extraordinary devotion. O Brahmā, Viṣṇu and other gods, then act accordingly, otherwise go the way you have come. Tarry not”.
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.
