Atualizado: 28 de jan. de 2022

Masters of Wisdom teach us that when at the beginning of time God Absolute created all planes of existence and beings related to them, He presented Himself in the creation as universal Dharma. But his creatures needed a spiritual guiding as well for their own dharmas, and Seers and Devas start praying their Him for more guidance. Out of compassion the Lord donated himself to the creation once more as the Teacher Principle. In the Hindu tradition, this eternal Teacher Principle of creation is called Dattatreya.

- ''Athri'' means ‘’not three’’.


- Dattatreya is absolutely free Consciousness beyond three gunas.
