Mythipedia Entry – The Mortal Condition
At the very heart of our Story lay the most basic idea of life itself – that we die. That we have only one lifetime to play the character we are playing. It is the most defining quality of our existence, the reality that here, in the mortal plane we are being mortal, moving through the corridors of Time on our journey of endless becoming.
What this means is that as mortal beings, we are part of the cycles of life. That we grow, we age, have experiences and eventually die. It means that our life is controlled by our biology, by the passage of time itself and that only by understanding that biology and it’s movement through the mortal condition can we ever hope to have any mastery over the nature of life.
As a thread within that tapestry of dimensions of time within space, our time on earth is defined by it’s timeline.
