As there are so many levels of fate, the best thing is to try to rise to the highest possible level of consciousness and try to mould the fates of all other levels according to that vision. In the highest level, the Daiva and Puruşakāra are one and the same thing. Because in that level, everything is supremely free. By the intervention of that supreme and conscious freedom, one can change any fate of lower level.
That is why prayer to the Divine is so much effective in completely changing the predeterminism of the lower forces. Divine Grace is supremely free and it can do and undo anything. It can change and alter any: fate. Becauseall these fates, etc. proceed from one consciousness, and that consciousness in its supreme level or in its supreme pose can change its lower forces. Or you can say, as you rise to that level, automatically all the facts of determinism or lower level begin to crumble down automatically.
So, the best form of Puruşakāra is to completely surrender to the Divine Will, which is above all fates and Puruşakāras. Prayer from a sincere heart can change the entire Daiva of the Universe. So surrender is the best means to contact our real and highest fate, i.e., realisation of the Divine.
The subject is complicated and sometimes words are used with different meanings. Suppose if somebody uses the word *Daiva’ as the 'Divine Will, then it is absolutely unchangeable and completely beyond the capacity of 'Puruşakāra’ to change it. But the word I have used is in the sense of 'fate'.
What is the inner destiny of a person is to be discussed later on.
Always remember that there is one Supreme Will, everything comes from it and everything is determined by it. To surrender and to offer oneself completely to it is the only way. The riddle of 'fate and effort can be solved only when we come in contact with this Divine Will.
