Sri PBA Swami's Sarartha Deepikai:
With this, the greatness of this means as compared
to the other means that have been given up, is told.

What is that greatness?

Those dharmas have to be performed by the chetana. 
Therefore they realize their nature only through the
chetana's effort. As this means is eternal, it is 
already accomplished. They are of the form of 
knowledge and effort. This one is distinguished and
of supreme power. Because they are due to the effort
of the chetana, they are fraught with danger. Since
this is an accomplished means, it has no danger.
Those means are not appropriate to the nature of the
chetana. This one is most appropriate. They are
dependent on each other. This is independent of
anything.

Since the other means are due to the effort of the
chetana, they are attached to him for their
existence. As they do not have the knowledge of 
what they need to do for the chetana nor do they 
have the power to do it, they are dependent on the
Lord to complete their task. But this means is 
opposite to those means, is complete and full of 
power. Therefore, it is not dependent on anything.
