How does the text describe the process of overcoming worldly suffering and beginning the spiritual journey?

According to Chapter 17, the spiritual journey often begins after one becomes exhausted by the "three unendurable torments" of worldly existence (Samsara). This profound suffering prompts a search for a way to stop the painful cycle. The text states that when this thought arises, true human purpose (Purushartha) is born. The initial and most critical step is to address the "beginningless ignorance" or Maya, which acts as a false imposition. Chapter 17 further advises that obstacles like desires, hope, and cravings for enjoyments are like roots that must be dug out completely to clear the path for spiritual progress.
