Dattatreya Stotra is a beautiful hymn in the praise of Lord Dattatreya. It is acknowledged that the seeker who recites this hymn five times a day accumulates a divine shield from the Lord and all of his cravings get fulfilled in a quicker span of time.
Dattatreya is the God who is a manifestation of the Divine Trinity Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva.
The Datta Mala Mantra thoroughly eliminates the diseases and obstacles in the life of the seeker.
The word Datta means "Given", Datta is named so because the divine trinity has "given" themselves in the form of a son to the sage couple Guru Atri and Mata Anusuya. He is the son of Guru Atri, hence the name "Atreya."
In the Nath convention, Dattatreya is witnessed as an Avatar or incarnation of Lord Shiva and as the Adi-Guru (First Teacher) of the Adi-Nath sampradaya of the Nathas.
