654)   Men do make real advances in the journey towards the Divine but the leading motive being egoistic, they subordinate the gains of the real advancement to the purposes of the ego. Thus the progress even when it is there, serves the opposite purpose. 

655)   If done rightly, "Thy Will be done" , etc. will dissolve the ego, says Mother.

          What is the right method?

          As there is a sincerity in speech, motives, a sincerity towards the Divine is required to aspire for His Will to be done. Repeated orally, it becomes a sound and soon tires. Repeated from the depth without the accompanying sincerity, it is frustrating and soon we forget it. We must know at each moment our will appears as an opinion, preference, urge, or impulse. To invoke the Divine we must first disinherit our will and as against our will, there must be an inner preference to the Divine Will and then it will be right. Such a repetition will touch the inner divine sincerely and evoke a response. (refer 657)
