didn't know the past lives bend.. or at least bend independently.. even if they do bend (which is what seems to be the case since people keep saying that o.O) they use the current avatar as a channel of their bending and since he blocks chakras or w/e.. taking away the current bender's bending would disrupt the process and they won't be able to bend 'through her".

but can he really take away the avatar's bending ability? the avatar is basically a spirit in a mortal body (and the spirit of the earth no less!).. like those fish things in TLA thats just too powerful to deal with, even with help from some spirits, if what amon claims is true.

for example i have never seen aang get hit by ty lee and gets his chi blocked.. maybe he couldn't be blocked? who knows...
