The darshana or vision of Dattatreya is supposed to be the most difficult to obtain of all the gods. The full form vision is practically impossible. Normally he is

reported to appear either in his disgusting form, already described, or as a shepherd. A spiritually evolved person should be able to see beyond superficial external appearances. If not, then you are not as evolved as you thought you were!
