One such story is of Dutt Jayanti
According to the legend, once Naradji went to Mother Parvati and started praising Goddess Anusuya’s Pativrata Dharma. At this time the ladies present there started getting jealous. And they started discussing about breaking the vow of husbandry of Rishi Atri’s wife Anusuya.
Accordingly the wives of Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh asked Anusuya to break the pativrata dharma of the goddess. Accordingly, Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh reached the ashram of Anusuya Devi in the form of a nun. Goddess Anusuya brought alms, but the Trinity refused to take the alms and desired food. At this time Anusaya was asked to strip naked and give food.
Anusuya became angry at this, but through penance she recognized all three and transformed all three into children. After this all three were given food. Started taking care like a mother. As a few days passed, the three goddesses became worried as to why the Trinity had not returned. After this, when all three of them went to Anusuya, they saw the Trinity in his child form. And seeking forgiveness for the crime he had committed, he asked the Trinity to return. Anusuya Devi refused. Then, from the union of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva, Dattatreya was born and Anusuya Devi received him as a son. After appearing as the son of Dattatreya, Goddess Anusuya returned the Trinity to its original form by the power of her penance. It is mentioned in the Puranas that Lord Dattatreya was born in Asha.
