Our passing mortality?

Does "our passing mortality" mean "our inevitable mortality"?

Context:

IN CONCLUSION

The symbol of the Skull & Cross Bones did not originally stand for poison. Unfortunately, today it does because the powers that be in the world are trying to cover up its true meaning; this an effort to keep the masses down, disempowered, and ignorant as to the true nature of human existence.
THE TRUE MEANING OF THE SKULL & CROSS BONES IS:

- Symbol of our passing mortality
- Reminder of how quickly time passes, so you should “Seize the Day” as we will be dead soon
- Call to enjoy life
- Though death will come, we will survive death
- We are death and we are life, we are an eternal god in this moment (and every moment) dreaming that we are alive on earth. The god is the reality, the life here on earth is the dream.
