The Avadhata Gita is a text of Vedanta representing extreme Advaita or Nondualism. It is ascribed te Dattatreya (Datta, son of Atri), who is looked upon as an Incarnation of God. Unfortunately, we possess no historical data concerning when or where he was born, how long he lived, or how he arrived at the knowledge disclosed in the text. Some of the Puranas mention him, and of these, the Mar kandeya contains the longest reference; but even this is legendary and by no means very informative.
