AchArya Hrdhayam

sUthram 233

"ivai gnAna dharsana prApthi avasthaigaL" 

para-bakthi, para-gnAnam and parama-bakthi are three different stages in 
relationship with the Lord Almighty.

the Lord mentioned to sri bAshyakArar that udayavar should be happy in knwoing 
about Him, seeing HIm and eager in reaching Him.

These translate into these stages.

i. Thus being with and getting separated with the Lord being a part of 
para-bakthi transforms into gnAna avasthai.
emperumAnai kUdudhalum, piridhalum, inba thunbangaLampadiyAna, 
para-bakthiyAnadhu, gnAna avasthaigaLAgavum;

ii. To realise the nature of the Lord clearly gets reflected as darshana 
avasthai;
emperumAnudaiya swarUpa, rUpa, guNa vibhUdhigaLai, migath-theLivAga aRigiRa 
para-gnAnamAnadhu-dharisana avasthaigaLAgavum.

iii. By thus realising and seeing Him but not reaching HIm makes one long for 
HIm and torment oneself. This stage is the stage of parama-bakthi which is 
prApthi avasthai.
