ʲīٳ (परीतात्मा) refers to “one who is filled with a particular emotion� (e.g., “with fury�), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.21 (“Description of the Special War�).—Accordingly, as Jalandhara fought with Śiva’s Gaṇas: “[...] Then Jalandhara the infuriated (ǻ-貹īٳ) leader of the Daityas hit Kārttikeya in his chest with his mace. O Vyāsa, plainly exhibiting the successful efficiency of the Mace secured as a favour from Brahmā Kārttikeya fell on the ground suddenly. Similarly, struck by the mace Nandin too fell on the ground, He was distressed a little although he was a great hero and a destroyer of enemies. Then the infuriated hero Gaṇeśa came there after remembering the lotus like feet of Śiva and split the mace of the Daitya with his axe. [...]�.
