Dear Smt Vedavalli,
Like several other works of pUrvAchAryas, Sri Vachana Bhsuhanam also
conveys that the Lord is the means and goal and He delivers out of
His krpA. Keeping faith in an AchArya is as good as believing in such
great Lord who is the means. Hence the AchArya himself is the means
out of his concern for the followers!
It is difficult to get the conviction unless His blessings are there.
Also the religion preached is selfless. Consumerism, casteism and
orientation toward rituals prevent adherence. Here, your exposure to
Bhagavadgita As It Is (perhaps, ISKCON) associated with aptitude to
analyze, may help.

I dont know whether Patricia Mumme wrote a treatise on it. if she
wrote, that will be a good one to read.
Any commentary you read, it is better to follow the following
approach:
Correlation of each sUtra with preceding and succeeding ones.
Please let me know once you secure a copy.
