ganagapur is a famous spiritual place associated with lord dattatreya and his second avatar (incarnation) sri narasimha saraswati swami.
it is considered as one of the foremost place to be visited by lord dattatreya devotees.


sri narasimha saraswati swami stayed in ganagapur for 24 years. he cured many people and taught the path of righteousness and self-realization here. he was a very compassionate master and helped many people as per their need. his whole life was devoted to helping people and also to recharge the spiritual places like alandi. he visited many spiritual places of india like kashi, trimbakeshwar, alandi and so on. before leaving for srisaila (sri mallikarjuna swamy jyotirlinga is there) for taking samadhi, sri narasimha saraswati swami left his nirguna paduka (sandals) in this ganagapur datta temple.


the paduka is charged with his energy and living presence. sri narasimha saraswati had promised that wherever his paduka will be there, in that place he will abide forever. the padukas are called as nirguna because it is devoid of form or qualities (attributes).


sri narasimha saraswati had moved to ganagapur after staying for 12 years in amarpur (now known as narsinhwadi). his paduka is also worshipped in narsinhwadi datta temple in kolhapur (maharashtra). narsinhwadi is the place where sri narasimha saraswati did penance.
