Agni Purana

Also known as: Agni Mahapurana

The Agni Purana is a vast and encyclopedic Purana presented as a dialogue between Agni, the fire god, and Sage Vasistha. It touches nearly every aspect of Hindu life and knowledge—from religion, rituals, and cosmology to governance, grammar, medicine, and military science. Though classified as a Purana, it is unique in its broad secular and practical scope.
