Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationѲ岵ܲ (महाघौघ) refers to “all sorts of sinful deeds�, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.25 (“Prayer by the gods�).—Accordingly, as Sanatkumāra said to Vyāsa: “This great narrative describing the suppression of Jalandhara is a sanctifying story of lord Śiva that destroys all sins (岵ܲ-śԲ). This prayer of the gods is holy and destructive of sins. It bestows happiness on the devotees and is delightful to Śiva. He who reads or teaches the two narratives, enjoys great happiness here and becomes the lord of Gaṇas hereafter�.

The Purana (पुरा�, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences.
