  • I meant "Puranas" (Puranic)

    Purana means old or ancient in Sanskrit. 

    Here Puranas means ancient or old literature in Sanskrit which contains lots of ancient stories about universe, gods and Hindu mythology. 

    There are 18 main Puranas like Matsya, Kurma, Skanda, Markendaya, Garuda, Brahma, Vamana, etc. They are mostly written by Vyasa again. 

    Puranas contain lot of conversations between gods and saints in previous yugas or eons. 

    • Oops! I now realize that you mentioned puranas/puranic ... in your post. I should have read more closely. It's right there in your first sentence!

      I was questioning myself if I was correctly applying the term in my post.Had I read your post with due attention it deserves, this wouldn't have happened, as I wouldn't have questioned (?). My confusion.

      Quiet unfortunately for me, I am not versed in any scriptures, and not trying to become learned in them, at this time.But the explanations may be useful for others. Thank you.
