Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationVidhiprerita (विधिप्रेरित) refers to “being prompted by Brahmā”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.4.3 (“The boyhood sports of Kārttikeya”).—Accordingly, as Brahmā narrated to Nārada: “O dear, then the powerful sage Viśvāmitra, urged by Brahmā, came there casually and was delighted. On seeing the unearthly splendour of that brilliant boy, he became very delighted. He bowed to the boy. With a delighted mind he eulogised him with the words prompted by Brahmā (vidhiprerita). Viśvāmitra realised his power. The boy too was delighted and became the source of great enjoyment. Laughingly he spoke to Viśvāmitra. It was very surprising. [...]”.
