O Learned and Devoted Servants of God
Jayanti means date of birth. Datta Jayanti means the date of birth of God Datta. But, God Datta is not born. The unimaginable God called Parabrahman created first space called ParamaVyoma in which He created an energetic body with energetic soul (soul is always energetic, which is nervous energy or awareness). The Parabrahman merged with this energetic being called Datta. Datta means the unimaginable God given to the world for meditation and worship because Parabrahman Himself is unimaginable for any soul to do meditation or worship. There is no trace of difference between Parabrahman and God Datta just like there is no trace of difference between a naked person taking bath in bathroom (invisible) and God Datta (visible), who is mediated Parabrahman. The word Datta means simply ‘given’ to the world of souls for the sake of convenient worship because unimaginable Parabrahman can’t be meditated upon. This God Datta is the energetic incarnation of the unimaginable God and is meant for energetic beings of the upper worlds. This energetic form contains three heads and six hands. The first head is called Hiranya Garbha from which later on God Brahma came as creator of the world. The second head is called Narayana from which God Vishnu came as maintainer or ruler of the world. The third head is called Ishvara from which God Shiva came as destroyer of the world. God Datta is one personality and the same God Datta is creator, ruler and destroyer of this world. Therefore, the Veda says that God is only one doing all the three cosmic activities, which are creation, maintenance and destruction of this entire cosmos.
Sage Atri and his wife Anasuya did long penance on Ruksha mountain along with other sages. Their doubt was that then they are seeing God Brahma as creator, God Vishnu as ruler and God Shiva as destroyer of the world separately in separate worlds, how the Veda said that God is only one doing all these three activities. God Brahma, God Vishnu and God Shiva appeared before all these sages saying “We three together can be taken as single God”. Sage Atri denied this concept and told that God is actually one only. The three divine forms merged together and appeared as the original God Datta with three heads and six hands. Then, sage Atri and Anasuya prayed God Datta to be born as their son. God Datta was born to the pious couple as three sons (Candra, Dattatreya and Durvaasa), who mingled together to result in one form with single head and two hands called Dattatreya. The birthdate of this God Dattatreya is this Datta Jayanti. Hence, Datta Jayanti is related to God Dattatreya and not to God Datta. God Datta is energetic incarnation and God Dattatreya is the human incarnation relevant to the humanity on the earth.
One need not do lifelong penance to see God Datta to get the true spiritual knowledge. Parabrahman is God Datta and God Datta is God Dattatreya. God Datta or Parabrahman is the source of all energetic incarnations and human incarnations of all religions in this entire cosmos. Hence, every incarnation contains Parabrahman in the form of God Datta. Therefore, you shall not find any difference between any two forms of God in this World. This concept is called Universal Spirituality and there is only one religion called Universal Religion with one God in different divine forms, which may be energetic or human incarnations. The human being can know the true spiritual knowledge from the human incarnation of God Datta without wasting any time to see God as energetic incarnation so that after knowing the true spiritual knowledge and developing the devotion, the devotee can serve God Datta in human form to get the ultimate salvation.
