A Vedic sage, born of the mind of Brahma. When Atri prayed to the Supreme for a son like Him, but without a clear idea of who the Supreme is, the Lords Vishnu, Brahma, and Siva all agreed to become his sons—as Dattatreya, Soma, and Durvasa.
Atri (Hindi: अतà¥à¤°à¤¿) is a clan or gotra of Jats found in Uttar Pradesh in India. Atris are believed to be descendants of Rishi Atri who was son of Brahma. Presently Atri Jats inhabit village Khadeha in Uttar Pradesh.
