Guest guest Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 Dear Sripad,This is NOT my brilliant reply.It is SHREERAM BALIJEPALLI's message which I have just copied & pasted from old messages.Hope this will enlighten you !swayamkamala lochana dattAtreya with anaghA devI--This Syamakamalalochana Dattatreya incarnation took place on the 12th day of the brighter half of the month of Kaarthika on Wednesday and at the time of Sunrise when the birth star was Revathi. This incarnation has greater aspect of Shiva. This principle bestows peace and knowledge. As the incarnation took on the Twelfth day this signifies that he is the giver of Bhukti. Here Wednesday signifies that he bestows prosperity in business. Star Revathi signifies that he bestows Valour and happiness. Association with Anagha Devi signifies that he bestows prosperity to the family) anaghA means "one who is sinless or pure". The AdhAra for our shrushti(cosmic- creation) is adya saktI. That itself is called as Bhagavanta. We fail to ascribe any gender to such a energy. Though the fundamental energy does not have any gender its products do have a form and sometimes gender.Why this is so is a big vedAtic question, which is out of the scope of the current posting.Similarly, from the fundamental energy which was a-sexual came the creation which consists of heterosexual beings. The scheme by which the differentiation of gender entered creation is called as 'Eshwara sankalpA' in the shastras. It means that it did not take place without the knowledge of the Almighty. Therefore, when that energy wants to take a form, it can take the form of Anda(ovum) or Jeevakana(sperm) .. Therefore the Almighty manifested sometimes in masculine form and sometimes in feminine form. Irrespective of the manifestation, the original form of the Almighty (i.e., the fundamental energy) is beyond the differentiation of gender. The same concept is echoed in an episode in the Dattatreya Purana. When Lord Dattatreya, the combined incarnation of the Trinity was a child of five years, many old sages spotted his greatness and started insisting him to show them the path of yogA. The child Datta wanted to test them. He disappeared in to a pond and remained there for one hundred years. Some of the sages waited for Him on the banks of the pond while the infant dattatreyA was in a state of complete Samadhi for hundred years. Even after coming out of the pond he continued to test the sages. Dattatreya, who was 105 years old then, brought out His Yogic energy through His brahma randhra (an astral orifice found in the centre of the skull, through which Yogis can leave the body), and gave it the form of a woman. Because the energy came out from Him, He was its natural owner. He declared her to be His consort. In order to test the sages, she drank wine and started dancing.She was born as a youthful,buxom and erotic woman. Seeing her drink wine, some of the sages called her 'Madhumati'. Others called her as 'Nadee' looking at her dance which resembled the dancing movements of a flooded river. Still others realised that she was none other than the Yogic Energy of Lord Dattatreya and prayed to Him. Some others went away disgusted at the sight. Then Lord Dattatreya came out of Samadhi. She now appeared as an ascetic! Lord Dattatreya named her as anaghA.(anaghA hari vallabha) Agha means sin, sorrow. Those who called her as Madhumati and Nadee had identified her as one who possessed sin. But in reality she was sinless. Therefore Dattatreya had named her as Anagha(Sinless, Pure). Those who had recognised her to be the energy of Dattatreya, obtained the true vision of the Lord and could transcend all sorrows. In other words, because of her their sorrows (Agha) disappeared. This was another reason why Dattatreya named her as Anagha (one who removes sorrows). Etymologically, the word Agha means that which comes to the experience of the doer (kartaaram anghaati iti agham. Aghi gatow). He who thinks that he is the doer, will experience pain and pleasure. According to vedantic view, even the worldly pleasure is in fact pain. Thus, one who thinks oneself to be the doer is always suffering. That energy which removes the feeling of doership is Anagha. According to another etymology, Agha means that which causes sufferings to remain for ever. (Na jahaati duhkham it agham. O haak tyaage) Sorrow is caused by poverty, disease, fear of enemies, greed , ignorance etc.. That which removes sorrow by bestowing prosperity, health, affection, contentment, wisdom etc., is Anagha. Because all these in mind, Lord Dattatreya called her as Anagha. Those sages who could comprehend this could see her as the manifestation of energy and could attain positive benefits. The demons who could not comprehend the reality only saw her as a dancer and therefore were annihilated. This particular episode makes it clear to us that those who thought the Almighty to be merely a female caused their own destruction. Those who consider the Almighty to be male only, also, accounted for their own doom.(The stories of such demons can be found in many puranas) Those who could realise that the Almighty was above such differentiation and was of the form of fundamental energy could transcend affinity and aversion. They alone could experience unalloyed bliss. Dattatreya is popularly known as a Yati(Ascetic) and an Avadhoota(one who has shaken off himself from worldly feeling and obligation). How then can he have a consort? - is one of the frequently asked questions. This question will not arise in the minds of those who have read the Datta Purana. Only those who consider Anagha to be a separate entity will raise the question "how can Dattatreya have a spouse?" Only when we realise that Anagha is the manifestation of His own energy, we will understand that His ascetic nature will not be disturbed when Anagha is seated next to Him. dr.p.r.k.prasad--- On Sat, 25/7/09, shripad Raut <shripadr1 wrote:shripad Raut <shripadr1Re: [Dattaatreyem] Re: Picture of Lord Datta and Anagha DeviDattaatreyem Date: Saturday, 25 July, 2009, 12:22 PM can any 1 tell me pls who is Anagha devi..
