॥श्री दत्तात्रेयं नमाम्यहम्॥

श्री दत्तात्रेयं नमाम्यहम् ।
हंस गरुड नन्दि वाहम् ।। (पल्लवी)

Salutations to Śrī Dattātreya, whose vehicles are the Swan, the Eagle and the Bull.

ब्रह्म विष्णु शिव मूलाधारं, वर्षित वेदान्तामृत धारम् ।
कुन्द कुशेशय कुवलय हारं, क्षणकृत जम्भासुर संहारम् ।।1।।

He is the source of three divine forms (Brahmā, Viṣṇu and Śiva). He rains streams of the nectar of spiritual philosophy. He wears garlands of red, blue and white flowers. He killed Jambha demon in a minute.

वेद शास्त्र मथनामृत सारं, दृशैव तारित घन संसारम् ।
सङ्कल्पाऽकृति माया जालं, विचित्र लीला विनोद कालम् ।।2।।

He is the essence of the divine nectar of the scriptures. By His mere glance, you cross the world-sea. The entire creation is His materialised will. He is entertained by own amazing plays!
