Uttanka’s Guru-Śuśrūṣā and the Commission to Retrieve the Maṇikuṇḍalas (उत्तङ्क-गुरुशुश्रूषा तथा मणिकुण्डल-आदेशः)
तमब्रवीत् पुनः कृष्णो मा त्वमत्र विचारय । अवश्यमेतत् कर्तव्यममोघं दर्शन॑ मम,यह सुनकर श्रीकृष्णने फिर कहा--'मुने! आप इसमें कोई अन्यथा विचार न करें। आपको अवश्य ही मुझसे वर माँगना चाहिये; क्योंकि मेरा दर्शन अमोघ है”
tam abravīt punaḥ kṛṣṇo mā tvam atra vicāraya | avaśyam etat kartavyam amoghaṃ darśanaṃ mama ||
Vaiśampāyana berichtete: Kṛṣṇa wandte sich erneut an ihn: „Zögere nicht und zweifle nicht in dieser Sache. So muss es gewiss geschehen: Bitte mich um eine Gabe, denn mein Erscheinen vor dir ist niemals fruchtlos.“

Educational Q&A
A divine encounter should not be treated as ordinary: Kṛṣṇa urges the listener to set aside hesitation and accept the ethical imperative to receive grace properly—by asking what is needed for dharma—because such darśana is ‘amogha’, never without meaningful result.
In Vaiśaṃpāyana’s narration, Kṛṣṇa speaks again to the person before him, discouraging further doubt and insisting that a boon be requested, emphasizing that his appearance and audience are unfailingly efficacious.
