THEORY DISCLAIMER: Do not take any of this as a statement of fact; it is not intended as fact. This is pure theory and speculation as a possible explanation for the question.

Perhaps a spirit created the first Avatar, guided him/her until he/she became fully realized, and became a part of the collective Avatar spirit. That spirit, since it had created the Avatar, would know enough about the nature of the Avatar energies to know what would sever the Avatar's cosmic/spiritual ties to the universe. In the interest of preserving what it had created, the spirit would tell the first Avatar that if any of his/her successors dies in the Avatar state the connection to cosmic/spiritual power would break and end the cycle forever, since the spirit who had created the Avatar would also die and there would be nobody to create a new Avatar.

Again, I repeat: This is purely the product of my imagination and some logic. Do NOT treat this as a statement of facts. (I'm tired of people taking my theories too literally. -_-)
