Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh, India
His Holiness Sri Sri Ganapathy Sachchidananda Swamiji of Mysore, one of the greatest spiritual leaders of the present day is an asset to India and the world at large. Sri Swamiji has consecrated 16 Datta Shrines - Shodasha Datta Kshetras representing the sixteen manifestations of Lord Datta in different parts of India.
Anantapur Ashram, one of the 16 Datta Kshetras, is the abode of Gnaana Saagara Dattatreya Swami, installed on 10th March, 1988. Sri Gnaana Saagara Dattatreya Swami shines forth in the company of his consort Sri Anagha Devi. Karyasiddhi Hanuman, and Navagraha deities are also worshiped here. Anantapur, situated in the dry terrain of Rayalaseema is significant because Sri Swamiji spent his teenage years here, during which, with help from his friends, he dug a fresh water well overnight, to relieve the shortage of drinking water caused by severe drought.
