Prahlada approached Him in great reverence and requested to tell him how to obtain that Supreme Bliss. Then Digambara replied 'God Vishnu incarnated as Nrisimha for you, as you were his beloved Devotee and annihilated your father the demonic Hiranyakasipu, You are ripe for attaining that Supreme knowledge. One should merge all doubts in Chitta and Chitta in the mind. mind in the ego' ego in the Maya, Maya in the Self. One should remain as self, knowing for certain that atman alone is Paramatman. This
wisdom should be firmly fixed and in self, This is the secret Prahlada at the command of Dattatreya Digambara ruled the Kingdom in a detached spirit, later handed over the Kingdom to his son and remained immersed in the supreme spirit with
Brahma Jnana, finally attained Kaivalya.


      In the same avatara of Datta-Digambara, one Sadhya Deva came and bowed down and asked for the path of beatitude.
Digambara told "One should give up desire, anger,pride, egoism and contemplate on the ultimate principle, one should keep up
his mind in equanimity in times of success, defeat, pain and pleasure Looking at His unique form and listening to His divine words, Sadhya Deva, beseeched for His anugraha and Digambara, the all-merciful blessed him with enlightenment. It was in this avatara, Kartaveeryarjuna, derived liberation by meditating over his form, Veda Dharma by uttering His Name,
Deepika by listening to His leelas, Vishnu Datta by worshiping at His feet, King Alarka by service, Ayuraga by salutation, Parasurama by surrendering, derived liberation from Lord Datta- Digambara. Bhagawan took this Avatara of Digambara on full moon day of first half of Asvina, on Wednesday at Sunrise. An avatara celestial and most distinguished for having blessed
numerous puranic personalities with Kaivalya is Datta Digambara.

Deva Deva


      This was a narration of Markandeya, according to which Bhagawan gave darshan to Brahma as Deva-Deva who came
with his retinue to see him. It was on the fourteenth day of the first half of Bhadrapada on Thursday, Bhagawan appeared as Deva-Deva was effulgent with the divine splendour, unparalleled
and indescribable. Brahma, residing in Satya Loka came to the hermitage of Dattatreya who then was in the form of DevaDeva. Brahma seeing him prostrated "O' Bhagawan, victory to you, O, omnicreator, giver of delight and supreme Bliss to Paramahamsas, to be worshipped by all.

I am blessed by your darshan, bestow upon me your grace, and bless me that I am
free from birth and death." Then Deva - Deva said "Brahma, it is a divine design your Karma has come to an end, you shall be absolved in My real nature along with the sages around you" Thus Brahma along with the sages were merged in the
real nature of Deva-Deva. An avatara of utmost significance is this to get liberation.

The 13th incarnation  of shivarupa dattatreya

Shivarupa datta

         Pingala Naga, once, noticed, Bhagawan seated under an Amlaka tree at the holy, Mahura reciting the Vedas. Pingala
finding Bhagawan in a very peculiar state questioned him "o Lord ! What is this stage of your life. It is neither Brahmacharin
as there is neither loin-cloth, nor the girdle of Munja grass, nor that of an householder as there is m) as there is no practice of penance, but you are naked and enjoying the company of a woman and wine ?" The Lord smilingly in great benevolence said", This stage in which I am now is the fifth stage, quite different from the normal four stages of life of all human beings. You might not have heard nor seen so far. This
stage is wherein I look upon this whole world as self, remain disinterested, free from all dwandwas, from all gunas. Always
remaining in perfect equipoise or Samarasa is the fifth stage" Saying so Bhagawan manifested immediately in an extremely
handsome and captivatingly effulgent form of an auspicious "SIVA-RUPA." This incannation came into existence on the
eighth day of the first half of Shravana on Monday. Having seen this Pingala got thrilled, amazed and prostrating said, Hey!Bhagawan forgive me out of ignorance out of bewilderment I questioned you. Pray bless me and liberate me".
