I just try to do the best that I can by everyone I come into contact with, and I always seem to get what I give. That translates across every single religion and faith I've ever studied Keep it simple. It's you and the creator trying to exist without causing any harm. The mind may wander, question, and provide answers for the moment. Past, present and future thoughts are just fill to placate your existence. Your one and only purpose for being here is to learn. The soul needs to feed on lifes little treasures so it can move on to the next level. Of the billions of humans on the planet, there are myriads of differing plains of soul status. Wherever you are is where you are supposed to be. You cannot change your journey, only influence it. Intelligence (within reason) has no bearing on the outcome of your journey to perfection. Just know, that on this planet at this time, collectively, we are a long way from perfection. The ultimate goal is to be one with the creator, one not wanted by most at this time in our development, as that would entail giving up Ego. No-one can be perfect in this stage, even Jesus was less than perfect and there are no Jesus' on this planet.
