Dattatreya
The son of the sage Atri and Anasuya in whom the natures of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva are combined — the one widely worshipped image where Brahma is a full third of the god. The Bhagavata instead gives Anasuya three sons, of whom Datta is Vishnu's portion. He is the first guru of the Nath yogis and the Avadhuta line, teacher of the twenty-four natural gurus, and the root of the Guru Charitra lineage centred on Ganagapur, Narsobawadi and Mahur.
