1. The Puranas naturally lent themselves to angmentations, and the Puranic Brahmans used their opportunities to the full pruly with further genuine traditions, but mostly with additions of brahmanical stories and fables and doctrine and ritual manner.

  Brahmanic tradition speaks from the Brahmanical standpoint, describes events and expresses feelings as they would appear in Brahmans, illustrates Brahmanical ideas, maintains and incalores the dignity, sanctity, suprimacy and even superhuman character of Brahmans, enunciates Brahmanical doctrines whatever subserved the interest of the Brahmans often enforeing the moral by means of marvellous incidents that not seldom are made up of absurd and utterly impossible details. It often introduces kings, because kings were their patrons, yet even so the Brahmans dignity is never forgotten.

  It is mainly Brahmanical mistakes and absurdities that have discredited Puranas. - Ancient Indian Historical Traditions - P. P. 37, 39 - F. E. Pargiter.
