Purana and Itihasa (epic history)

Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translation

Vinaya (विनय) or Vinayocita refers to “humble behaviour”, which is preferred above evil propensities (duśceṣṭita), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.1.17. Accordingly, as Guṇanidhi, who was addicted to gambling (dyūta), was told by his mother as follows:—“[...] how is it that you do not feel ashamed of wickedness (durvṛtta)? Dear son, your maternal uncles too are matchless in learning (vidyā), conduct (śīla) and pedigree (kula) and other things. You are not afraid even of them. [...] See the Brahmin boys of your neighbourhood. Even in our house see the disciples of your father. How humbly do they behave (vinaya-ucita)? Dear son, if the king hears of your evil propensities (duśceṣṭita), he will cease to respect your father and may even suspend the regular maintenance allowance”.

Accordingly, in the sermon of Sūri Dharmaghoṣa:—“[...] that is called penance (tapas) that burns away karma. Outer penance is fasting, etc., and inner is confession and penance, etc. [...] Confession and penance (prayaścitta), service to others (vaiyāvṛtta), study of sacred texts (svādhyāya), reverence (vinaya), indifference to the body (vyutsarga), good meditation (śubhadhyāna) are the sixfold inner penance”.
