What is Dattatreya Puja?

Worship of Lord Dattatreya, in whom Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva are honoured together as the Adi Guru, traditionally offered on Thursdays and Datta Jayanti.

A Pandit can perform Dattatreya Puja at your home, guest house or hotel, with Guru stotras, abhishek of the Datta murti or picture, and aarti, in Hindi or Marathi vidhi as your family prefers.

Procedure, samagri & what's included

वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ।

निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥

Traditional Ganesha prayer

Why Families Choose Varanasi for Dattatreya Puja

Varanasi has always been a city of gurus and seekers, and families who follow the Datta sampradaya often feel that a puja to the Adi Guru belongs naturally in Kashi, close to the Ganga.

Visitors on pilgrimage frequently add a Datta Puja on a Thursday or on Datta Jayanti, combining it with a morning Ganga snan and darshan in the old city.
