Talk:Energybending/@comment-3123266-20120423094712

I am just going to throw this theory out there. "The energy within ourselves" really refers to Chakras, so energybending is applicable to most benders. Bending another's energy is a different technique so it should be called "Bending Removal". We have four Elemental Chakras but also three "Sensory" Chakras: Sound, Light, and Thought.

Seismic sense and lie detection relate to Sound Chakra. The Light Chakra gives Sokka the power of perception and the Combustion Man the ability to shoot focused beam of light from his third eye. Thought Chakra is for telepathy and mind control, which Amon and Pathik can also do. Amon may not be able to remove bending, only suggest to others that he could. The mind controls the body after all.
