Shiva Purana Boxset Set of 3

Puranas, translated by scholar and economist Bibek Debroy. The set presents the text’s creation narratives, legends of Lord Shiva, accounts of divine manifestations, teachings on devotion and dharma, descriptions of sacred places and rituals, and reflections on spiritual knowledge.

The Shiva Purana belongs to the wider Purana tradition: ancient Sanskrit literature that combines mythology, cosmology, religious teaching, genealogy, pilgrimage traditions, ritual material, and moral instruction. In this text, Shiva appears not only as a major deity but also as a cosmic force associated with creation, preservation, transformation, and liberation.

Debroy’s edition is an unabridged translation based on a Sanskrit text comprising 464 chapters and 24,646 shlokas. His introduction provides historical and textual context for the Puranas, helping readers distinguish the tradition’s mythic narratives, literary structures, and religious significance.
