                                      PRAMEYA SEKARAM

   

  This divine work of pillai lokacharya clearly states the steps through which 
a baddha jeevatma finally attains the ultimate goal.

   

  **Due to the unconditional grace of bhagavan an unknown good is obtained;

   

  Bhagavan is svathantran so no one really knows when his grace will fall on 
which jeevatma.  But due to some reason unknown to all of us emperuman showers 
his grace on one jeevatma.

   

  **Due to which disinterest is removed;

   

  All along the jeevatma has been immersed in the pleasures of the world and 
not been interested in bhagavat/bhagavata vishaya.  Not once has he ever turned 
his face towards this direction of bhakthi marga.  But now due to the divine 
grace of the lord slowly he turns towards this direction.

   

  **Due to which an interest towards bhagavat bhAgavata vishaya is created;

   

  Till today the jeevatma who considered this worldly pleasures as his great 
treasure and was totally immersed in the same now slowly turns his face towards 
the opposite direction where he sees more permanent happiness waiting for him.  
Slowly his interest for bhagavat bhAgavata vishaya starts growing.

   

  **As the interest grows an inquisitiveness to know the difference between the 
wanted and unwanted is created;

   

  He starts thinking, "all along I have been at the back of worldly pleasures 
and now my senses pull me towards the bhagavat/bhagavata vishaya.  Which should 
I choose?" So now he starts to analyse his wants and dislikes, the good and the 
bad.

   

  **Due to which one reaches a sadacharyan;

   

  Not being able to come to a conclusion of his own he tries to find an answer 
from a knowledgeable person who can show him the right way.  So now he is in 
search of an acharyan.
