Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationVivardhita (विवर्धित) refers to the “flourishing” (of a civilization), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.2 (“The Prayer of the gods).—Accordingly, as Brahmā said to the Gods: “O gods, I tell you, do not be afraid at all of those Asuras. Śiva will hit upon a good way of killing them. The Asuras have flourished (vivardhita) due to my favour. They do not deserve destruction at my hands. Their merit is bound to increase in the three cities again. All of you gods including Indra pray to Śiva. If the lord of all is pleased, he will carry out your task”.
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.
