This multi-faceted theory came to us from an anonymous Tumblr user.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Previously we discussed Chakras as it pertains to energy bending<\/a>, the difference in Amon’s skill and what we’ve seen before<\/a> and – of course – Amon’s Revelation<\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Okay. Remember how Aang had to unlock all of his chakras in order to gain the power to control the Avatar state? He made it all the way until the last chakra, the chakra that he couldn\u2019t open because of his earthly attachment to Katara, yeah?It\u2019s the Though Chakra, Sahasrara, the chakra of pure cosmic energy. Sahasrara is located at the crown of the head. The same place Amon uses to take away people\u2019s bending \u201cpermanently\u201d in episode 3. <\/p>\n

Let\u2019s get back to Aang for a second. <\/p>\n

He couldn\u2019t unlock that last chakra, and so he was unable to enter the Avatar state for a very, very long time. He needed to let go of his earthly attachment to Katara in order to be able to enter the Avatar state. Something that was incredibly difficult for him to do. Amon knows something about chakras, and how they all affect benders and normal people.<\/p>\n

Since the individuals Amon has dealt with so far (thugs who love money) are unable to give up worldly possessions (money and power!), they are unable to unlock the Thought Chakra and bring back their bending. <\/p>\n

And now we tie Korra into this beauty! <\/p>\n

Korra sucks at spiritual things. So she could never know about the 7 chakras (heck, she didn\u2019t even know that she lost her bending temporarily because her chi was blocked) Korra being able to airbend, and her being able to connect to the spirits is incredibly important. More important than we think.I think that if Korra is able to get in touch with her spiritual self, then she will be able to see past the facade of bending being taken away \u201cpermanently\u201d and will be able to help some individuals get their bending back.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
