Lord Dattatreya – The deity with the powers of the Hindu trinity

Dattatreya represents the Hindu trinity of Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu and Lord Mahesh (Shiva). Endowed with three heads and six arms, Lord Dattatreya was born to Sage Atri and Devi Anasuya on Margashirsha Purnima Tithi. He is also hailed as a sage who attained enlightenment without a guru. And if the folklore is anything to go by, then Lord Dattatreya attained infinite wisdom by observing Mother Nature.

Lord Dattatreya’s pictorial depiction shows him holding the Trishul (Trident) and a Damaru (Drum) of Shiva, the Sudarshana Chakra (discus) and the Shankha (conch) of Lord Vishnu and the Kamal (lotus) or a Kamandala (water pot) and a Japmala (chanting beads) of Lord Brahma in his hands.

Dattatreya’s three heads represent the three Gunas – Sattva, Rajas and Tamas and his six hands symbolise Yamas (control), Niyama (rules), Sama (equality), Dama (strength), Daya (compassion) and Shanti (peace).

Moreover, the Kamadhenu (divine cow) and four dogs accompany him, and one can even find the Kalpavriksha (the tree that grants wishes) in the background. The Kamadhenu epitomises the one who grants wishes. Interestingly, the four dogs symbolise human traits such as Icchha (desire), Vasana (lust), Asha (hope) and Trishna (thirst), while the Kalpavrisksha represents the tree of life.

Interestingly, Lord Dattatreya is also beleved to be one of the twenty-four avatars of Lord Vishnu.
