Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationVigarhita (विगर्हित) refers to a “despicable mess”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.2.19. Accordingly as Brahmā narrated to Nārada:—“[...] but the lord Śiva saw it by His divine vision. The trickling down of the semen excited His fury and He said—“O sinful wretch, what a despicable mess (vigarhita) you have perpetrated? At the time of her marriage you have passionately gazed at the face of my beloved’”.
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, 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.
