How would a bhakt attain knowledge and detachment

One more thing to consider is how would a seeker on the path of bhakti, who is neither overly attached nor overly detached, gain spiritual knowledge and become detached (vairagya) from this world? As without knowledge and detachment, it is not possible to progress on the path of devotion.

वासुदेवे भगवती भक्तियोगः प्रायोजितः ।
जनयत्याशु वैराग्यं ज्ञानं च यदहैतुकम् ॥
भा 1.2.7 ॥

vāsudeve bhagavatī bhaktiyogaḥ prāyojitaḥ ।
janayatyāśu vairāgyaṃ jñānaṃ ca yadahaitukam ॥
Bhagwatam 1.2.7 ॥

“Through bhakti, Knowledge (gyan) (4) and detachment (vairagya) come automatically, you don't have to make additional effort for them”.

भक्ति: परेशानुभवो विरक्तिरन्यत्र चैष त्रिक एककाल: ।
प्रपद्यमानस्य यथाश्न‍त: स्युस्तुष्टि: पुष्टि: क्षुदपायोऽनुघासम् ॥ 11.2-.32-33 ॥

bhakti: pareśānubhavo viraktiranyatra caiṣa trika ekakāla: ।
prapadyamānasya yathāśna‍ta: syustuṣṭi: puṣṭi: kṣudapāyo'nughāsam ॥ 11.2-.32-33 ॥

That is, “to the extent your mind is attached to God, to that extent by His grace, you will naturally become disinterested in worldly matters and will gain knowledge about God”. In this way bhakti, gyan and vairagya will go hand in hand. When the devotee attains perfection i.e. when he becomes God-realized, then there will be complete detachment and complete knowledge.
