Sri Dattatreya –
Sri Parashurama Guru Lineage

Sri Dattatreya is the only form of the three gods Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. Sri Dattatreya was the first Guru to teach spiritual knowledge and spread divine knowledge to the world. Therefore, he is called the ADHI GURU. Sri Dattatreya exists in three incarnations: God, Rishi, and Guru.

The main disciple of Sri Dattatreya was Sri Parashurama, the sixth incarnation of Sri Maha Vishnu. Sri Parashurama, through penance, received the axe from Lord Shiva, named Parasu. Sri Parashurama has a glory that other incarnations do not have. The other incarnations of Sri Maha Vishnu departed after completing the duty of their incarnation. However, it is believed that Sri Parashurama is still meditating on Mount Magendra. That’s true — Sri Parashurama is one of the seven Chiranjeevis. The Puranas say that he awaits the Kalki incarnation at the end of the Kali Yuga.

Sri Parashurama is the one who bestowed the arts of Asthra Sastra to the world. Parashurama’s Sri Parashurama Kalpa Tantra is the treasure trove of the basic Tantric and Mantra arts of this world. It first spread from the state of Kerala to other places. Sri Parashurama created the state of Kerala and made Pradhista 108 Bhagavathis and 108 Shiva Lingas there.

Sri Parasurama Kalpa Tantra or Kalpa Sutra, which went out to various countries, became the arts of the respective regions. For example, it was named Nepal Tantra because someone from Nepal came, learned it, and spread the art in that country. Thus, Buddhist, Chinese, and African priests learned from the Sri Parasurama Kalpa Tantra and taught it in their own countries and languages for the benefit of others.

There are four dynasties under Sri Parashurama. Of these, the Natha dynasty is the most important. The priests belonging to the 'Shiva Avadhu' sect under that Natha dynasty were experts in the arts of Mantra and Tantra, as well as in disciplines such as Astrology, Siddha Medicine, and Vaasi.

The Sri Dattatreya – Sri Parashurama Guru lineage is considered very famous not only in India but also abroad. In this way, Athmaguru Ramakrishnan Guruji learned the arts of Tantricism, Astrology, and Panchapakshi Shastra, and divine arts like Vaasi. He created a spiritual kingdom called ‘Mantragiri Samasthanam’ to teach the lineage, glory, fame, and grace of Sri Dattatreya and Sri Parashurama to the world.

Athma Guru Ramakrishnan Guruji is the only Guru in Tamil Nadu who teaches the divine arts in the sacred lineage of Sri Dattatreya and Sri Parashurama. He has created many Gurus under him and, through them, has been performing various services to spread the fame and grace of Sri Dattatreya and Sri Parashurama. Till this time, the Guru has given Diksha and taught these arts to more than five thousand students.
