Divine will not be active directly, as Brahman will remain as witness to all our actions. By default all our actions cause karmic imprints. Here Divine Will can be explained as karmic experience. In other words, karma cannot be wiped out with freewill. Karma has to be experienced and the experience may be good or bad. Freewill only helps in preventing further accrual of karmas.

So if freewill is limited then it is this which is creating new karmas for the body to suffer or enjoy in future. But most of the time if the divine will is in play then ideally karma is not accrued or should not accrue. Hence the question will arise that, does God After creating living beings makes us to perform karmas with his divine will, which results in New karmas? So the seed of aspiration towards self realisation is also sown in by the divine and providing realisation is also left to its will?So ideally freewill is just a leverage given to us to fast forward our evolution towards self realisation?

Freewill is always limited, be it first birth or last birth. If freewill is not limited, then it is Divine Will.

Respected GurujiSo on the flip side. Suppose we consider that the first being that will be born here. Should ideally have no karmics imprints attached to him. It is only that he accrues new karmas at that birth which is extended over next life. Hence limiting his freewill in the subsequent births. But if the person uses his freewill effectively from his first birth then ideally his freewill should not be limited. Does this logic hold good?

Positive thoughts are a good tool, but even for positive thoughts you should have Karma, precisely on account it being a good tool. Fate cannot manifest from outside. It operates you from the inside. A highly positive mind effectively mitigates sufferings, and such mode of the mind will be challenged by fears at the appropriate time on account of the work of Karma. In planets, Shri Sani operates as the one who manifests fear. In which area your fears are going to be is based on his house placements. There is a reason why Jyotish is considered to be a part of Veda. It is the only way you can analyze your karmic account and find out what is your past Karma.

Then there arises one question that, out of 100% of our life how much is karma driven(karma of previous birth) and how is accrued in this birth.If one cannot know the above it becomes Very important for us have positive thoughts/devotion/faith all the time

Gods don't carry powers to alter the effects of Prarabhda Karma. But it is within their powers, to mitigate the suffering. Let us say this is a via-media solution!

Yes, karma is the ultimate. But we do not know that everything is happening due to karma of the past births. We also accrue karma in this birth. Karmas of this birth can be eradicated through faith and devotion. As far as spiritual path is concerned, faith, dedication and perseverance are very important. Yes, faith and devotion will surely change anything today, provided it is outside the ambit of karmas of previous births.

thank you sir. But, When it is said that Karma is the ultimate truth, how these mantras help or should we take this literally or can we hope for miracles to override karmas. Also, history says in the narration of kalidasa story, where an illiterate becomes a great poet due to divine grace of kali. Can faith and devotion rechange anything even today too?
