Body

Anasooya Devi, his mother was happy to see her son Dattatherya returning to the ashram. Dattathreya requsted the permission of his parents to go over to Sahya mountains for the welfare of the devotees. Even when Anasooya Devi was familiar with continuous meditation, at first she did not grant permission to her son due her fondness for her child. Dattathreya reminded his mother of the greatness of meditation and finally obtained permission. Anasooya devi said that she had claim on his physical body and asked him to refuse it. Dattathreya tore his body and submitted it at the feet of his mother. The mother realized that meditation is important to him as he is dear to her and she as a mother should be broad hearted, and sacrifice her pleasures for the benefit of the world. The regreted Anasooya Devi gave back the physical body of Dattathreya and granted permission, and blessed him with tears. Dattathreya started meditation at the Sahya hills with the permision of his parents. He not only uplifted human race but also Indras and other devadas. Thus the acts of Lord Dattathreya beyond common man's imagination was for the welfare and wellbeing of the entire world.
