Datta Jayanti (Guru Dattatreya Jayanthi, the birthday of Lord Dattatreya) is observed on Margashirsha Purnima, the full moon day in Margashirsha Month. In 2021, Datta Jayanti date is December 17-18.
In fact, Datta Jayanti is observed on Shukla Paksha Chaturdashi in Margashirsh month. Dattatreya, the son of Anasuya and Atri Maharshi, is considered as Trimurti Avatar, an incarnation of Hindu Trinity – Lord Vishnu, Brahma and Shiva.
Purpose of Dattatreya incarnation and Datta Jayanti
When Goddesses Saraswati, Lakshmi and Parvati came to know about Anasuya’s pativrata dharma, they wanted to test her and requested their husbands Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva to do so by asking her to give food with unclothed body. Anasuya made the Hindu trinity as small babies and fed them without any cloth on her body. Anasuya’s husband, Atri Maharshi came and knew the whole episode, created all three babies into one. This one form of Trimurti is Dattatrya Swamy. With their powers, Atri and Anasuya recreated Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva.

Datta Jayanthi is celebrated with lot of gusto in Sri Pada Vallabha Kshetram at Pithapuram in Srikakulam district of Andhra Pradesh
but Pithapuram was located in East godavari sitrict not in srikakulam district. please notify and update.
as u told that sri pada kshetram in pitha purm .this is in east godavari district of andhra prades, not situated in srikakulam dirstrict please change this.
regards
Jai Guru Datta, I would like to suggest few corrections in the above. Sripadavallabha Kshetram is located in East Godavari district of Andhrapradesh ( and not in Srikakulam). Gangapur is located in Gulbarga district of Karnataka but not in Maharashtra. Jai Guru Datta.
HAVE FULL FAITH…IN DHATTATREYA MAHARAJ…MIRACLES WILL TAKE PLACE
