Bhavishya Purana

Bhavishya Purana earns a special distinction by being the only Purana that is based on the ‘predictions’.

It mostly tells us what ‘will be’ from the time it was compiled in. Hence oracles and prophecies abound in this Purana. Even though other Puranas also delve occasionally in future-telling, they all seem to have borrowed the futuristic section from this Purana only. The present edition of Bhavishya Purana is the abridged or condensed version of the three Puranas known as ‘Bhavishya Purana’, ‘Bhavishyati Purana’ and ‘Bhavishyottara Purana’. It is also believed to have been the only Purana that has continued to evolve for more than 2000 years.
