Ms. Laxmi Thrylokya asked: God Datta is said to be naked Datta (Digambara Datta) even though He wears saffron cloth. Why? - At Your Divine Lotus Feet, Laxmi Thrylokya
Swami Replied:- As I told, the soul is always famous for misinterpretation and misunderstanding of the true concept. The unimaginable God (Parabrahman) became God Datta by merging in an energetic body with energetic soul (called Aadiparaashaktii) to express Himself to the souls. This energetic body with soul is called as cloth as said in the Giita (vāsāṃsi jīrṇāni…- Gītā). Hence, the unimaginable God without this medium or body is naked. A naked human being never appears before anybody. Similarly, the unimaginable God can never be seen or even never can be imagined by any soul. Hence, He is called as unimaginable God, which does not mean the sense of naked without cloth. The Spiritual knowledge preached by God Datta contains always naked true concepts and due to this reason God Datta in saffron cloth is called naked or Digambara, which does not mean naked without cloth.
