Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translation

Vaiṣṇavadharmavat (वैष्णवधर्मवत्) refers to “one professing the Vaiṣṇava cult”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.33 (“The appeasement of Himavat”).—Accordingly, as Himavat (Himācala) said to the Seven Sages: “O ye seven sages of great enlightenment, what you have just now said has been already cherished by me by the will of Śiva. Now, a certain Brahmin professing Vaiṣṇava cult (vaiṣṇavadharmavat) came here and spoke very critically about Śiva. Ever since, the mother Pārvatī has gone out of sense. Hences she does not wish her daughter’s marriage with Śiva”.
