Vyakhyana Saram:
In the prior shloka, Swami Desikan said "netum yatase". For Him to do that, He needs a pretext. That is explained in this shloka.

The Shastras do not show just one means to reaching Him. They show several means such as Bhakti, Prapatti, just making the statement "I surrender" or seeking an elevated soul such as an acharya or a bhAgavata who follow these paths. He Himself makes one of these happen and uses that pretext to protect the samsaris.
