Utsārya (उत्सार्य) refers to “abandoning” (one’s neighbourhood), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.1 (“Description of Tripura—the three cities).—Accordingly, after Maya built the three cities: “[...] Thus the Asuras, sons of Tāraka, after acquiring the boons, lived there subservient to Maya, a great devotee of Śiva. Abandoning (utsārya) the other parts in the three worlds [sarvaṃ trailokyamutsārya] they entered the cities and ruled the kingdom following the principles of Śiva. O sage, a long time elapsed even as they were engaged in meritorious activities and living happily ruling over the good kingdom. [...]”.
