The Bhavishya Purana (Bhaviṣya Purāṇa) is one of the eighteen major Puranas genre of Sanskrit literature inHinduism. The title Bhavishya means "future" and implies it is a work that contains prophecies regarding the future, however, the "prophecy" parts of the extant manuscripts are a modern era work.

The Bhavishya Purana is an ancient text authored by Sri Vyasa Muni,
the compiler of the Vedic texts. It is listed among the eighteen major
Puranas. Bhavishya means “future” and Purana means “history”, so the
text’s name would translate literally as “The History of the Future”. Though
the text was written many thousands of years before the recorded events
took place, by the power of his mystic vision, Sri Vyasa was able to
accurately predict the happenings of the modern times. One of the text’s
poetic styles is to present the events as though they have already
happened. This is a common practice in Sanskrit poetry, and does not
indicate that the book was written in modern times. Modern scholars reject
the contents of Bhavishya Purana mostly on the grounds that its
information is too accurate.
