thereby leaving the brains of future generations programmed to find a purpose.

It was their mortality fears that programmed them (future generations) to find a purpose? Or their solution to those fears?

Well, OK: I can see that you have been careful by using the word "leaving"; So the programming was not enhanced or created by the previous solution, but it was pre-existing...
