Though I also own a DVD copy of Avatar I recorded it on TIVO simply because it seemed simpler that way to access even though often a Cable copy of Avatar has been edited somewhat but I was still recording it in HD so it looks really fantastic on my 60 inch flatscreen in the living room.
 
I have written about the "Creators" lately and likely more than any other movie Avatar somewhat describes how if humans were avatars how Creator's souls inhabit humans. So, the reason human souls are immortal basically is that Creators live millions and billions of years and the closest useful way to describe would be to say the eat different forms of energy so they create Galaxies like farms and some of the life forms that evolve in Galaxies like humans do they can inhabit and experience their lives through like Avatars. They do this because when Creators live Billions of years they get bored and this boredom can kill them. But, when they experience mortality it makes them value life once again so it has meaning once again to them. If you can imagine never having to die, never even needing time and  space or water or air to breathe or human food to eat but only energy of different forms to consume for you and your children this is what it is like for them.
 
And imagine you are looking forward now to billions of years of existence. What are you going to do with all that time? Maybe hanging out as a human on earth makes some sense sort of like Hercules did as a God and a human at the same time? So, he was half God half human?
 
However, I don't think it is a technology that they use to live in human beings it is just a natural thing they do sort of like we watch TV and listen to the radio and go on the Internet or get into cars and travel around countries or get into planes and travel the world. It is sort of like that for them. 
 
It is having things end that makes being alive desirable for them. So, then they can return to being Creators renewed with vigor to go on and to try something new and live another million or two years and then try something new in the galaxy or universe like that.
 
However, I think a state superior to this is realizing that in the end there is only one being in the universe of which we all are a part of. And understanding this having compassion of all the pieces of this one being seems like a more desirable way to move forward. Having compassion for oneself is helpful to others and having compassion for others is helpful for oneself. So, helping others and oneself is a desirable state to be in because all parts of the one are helped and all parts become happier ongoing.
