Significance of Anaghastami

Anagha means sinless. We commit sins by our thoughts, words and deeds. These sins prevent us from achieving Moksha. Anagha Swami and Anagha Devi destroy these sins and protect all the people in the world. Sadguru Lord Dattatreya's Tattvam is beyond our comprehension.

Lord Dattatrêya in his householder's form is known as Anagha Swami and his consort is Anagha Dêvi. Sri Anagha devimata is an incarnation of Sri Lakshmi Dêvi.

In Krita Yuga, King Kartaviryarjuna performed this Vratam for invincibility and to attain the Ashta Siddhis.

In Treta Yuga, King Dasaratha and his son, Lord Sri Rama, performed the Anagha Vratam.

In Dwapara Yuga, Lord Sri Krishna narrated Anagha Vratam to Dharma Raja.

It is recommended that everyone should perform this Anagha Vratam to remove and prevent the obstacles that are placed in our path towards spiritual progress. By obtaining the blessings of Lord Dattatrêya, devotees can achieve spiritual bliss, physical comforts, and become harbingers of peace and tranquillity in society.
