Idol featuring Lord Dattarey is artistically crafted in solid copper by skilled artisans of South India.Symbolically Lord Dattatreya is depicted with three heads, six hands, three dogs, standing in front of a gift giving cow. In his hands He holds a drum (damaru), discus like weapon (chakra), conch shell (sankh), water vessel (kamandala) and one hand in blessing pose . The Lord’s three heads represent Brahma Tatwa, Vishnu Tatwa and Shiva Tatwa. All powerful creative cause is Brahma, sustaining energy is Vishnu and annihilating energy is Shiva (Srishti, Sthithi and Laya energies) are three heads.
All these attributes of the Lord have their esoteric meanings. The trident is used for killing the ego, and the drum is used to awaken those souls who are still sleeping in the slumber of ignorance. Lord Datta’s conch shell is used to sound the OMKARA, the primordial sound and the first word of the Hindu scriptures. The divine AUM is composed of Akara – the Creator/Initiator, Brahma; Ukara -Sustainer/Protector, Vishnu; Makara – Destroyer/Terminator, Maheswara. Lord Dattatreya is also holding a rotating discus -chakra. It is a round circle with no beginning and no end. Like the universe, it too is constantly moving, always in a flux. The four dogs of Dattatreya are the embodiments of the four Vedas.
Lord Datta blesses human beings by giving momentum to departed ancestors and reducing their ancestral problems. God relieves humans from the debt unto ancestors through the rites done to give momentum to ancestors and the chanting of Lord Datta’s chant.
