1. What is Religion?
Religion is a form of guidance from those with greater understanding to those with lesser understanding. The greater your awareness, the less you need religion. Just as children need something or someone to rely on until they mature, those with limited understanding require teachings. Religion is therefore a set of teachings for those with limited recognition.
2. What is God?
God is an all-knowing, all-powerful concept created by humans. Gods are created with teachings necessary for the local people. The more general and sparse the teachings, the greater the awareness of the people holding those teachings. Gods serve to expand the awareness of the people in a given region. Essentially, God is intended to enhance human awareness.
3. What Path Should Humans Follow?
There is no predetermined path or direction that humans must follow. In life, it is sufficient to think about, choose, and act on what you want to do right now, without necessarily needing guidance or education. Schools and religious practices exist until individuals are able to think, choose, and act on their own desires. Becoming capable of self-guidance is not measured by standardized test scores, financial statements, or the words of leaders and educators, but by your own heart and whether you are enjoying the present moment.
