Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translation1) Vātya (वात्य) refers to “gusts of wind”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.15 (“The penance and reign of Tārakāsura”).—Accordingly, as Brahmā narrated: “[...] At the same time, several phenomena of evil portent forboding misery and distress happened, when the son of Varāṅgī was born making the gods miserable. [...] The earth with all the mountains quaked; the quarters blazed; the rivers and oceans were particularly agitated. The rough wind blew with a hissing noise. Gusts of wind with troops of tempests and dust for banner [i.e., vātya-anīka-rajas-dhvaja] uprooted several trees. [...]”.
2) Vātyā (वात्या) refers to a “stormy whirlwind”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.16 (“The battle of the gods”).—Accordingly, after Viṣṇu spoke to Lakṣmī: “[...] Then the Daityas afflicted by the gusts of wind set in motion by the wings in the speedy flight of the younger brother of Aruṇa (i.e Garuḍa) were blown here and there like the clouds in the sky tossed about in a stormy whirlwind (vātyā-vivartita). Then on seeing the Asuras afflicted by the gusts of wind, Jalandhara rushed against Viṣṇu shouting out cries of bravery angrily. [...]”.
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.

[Sanskrit to German]
Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
