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.
