It's because you need the -iĝ suffix to turn it into an intransitive verb.
La instruisto komencas la lecionon. The teacher starts the lesson.
Here, the verb can act on a direct object, so it's transitive.
La leciono komenciĝas. The lesson starts.
Here, the lesson starts, but it doesn't start, like, a revolution or anything, so it's intransitive.
