Dattatreya

More commonly known as Dattaguru, Dattatreya is a Hindu sanyasi (Sanskrit for Monk). He is said to be an avatar of the amalgamation of the three prominent Hindu mythology figures Vishnu, Brahms and Shiva which may also be collectively called Trimurti. There are a lot of Hindu texts like Upanishads that are dedicated to Dattatreya. He represents simplistic approach to life and kindness. In a lot of carvings he is surrounded by dogs or a cow, hence the depiction has stayed authentic and true to the portrayal in Hindu texts.
