Apotheosis: Difference between revisions

* Explored as part of the story in [[Roger Zelazny]]'s novel ''[[Lord of Light]]'', although whether the "gods" really ''are'' gods is a matter of some contention. Regardless, the ''process'' of becoming one is simple in concept, though quite difficult in execution:

{{quote|Godhood is more than a name. It is a condition of being.... Being a god is the quality of being able to be yourself to such an extent that your passions correspond with the forces of the universe, so that those who look upon you know this without hearing your name spoken.... One rules through one's ruling passion. Those who look upon gods then say, without even knowing their names, "He is Fire. She is Dance. He is Destruction. She is Love."}}
