Talk:Amon/@comment-110.55.221.77-20120523100019

Repost from the Chakras' page. But it is still related to Amon so here it goes.

The reason why Amon can somehow (permanently?)remove someone's bending ability.

Chakras are nexuses of metaphysical or biophysical energy within the body.

Each chakra has a purpose and deals with a different emotion. As such, each one can be opened and closed depending on a given individual's state of mind. When a chakra is open, energy is free to flow about the body. On the contrary, energy flow is restricted when a chakra is sealed. The chakras must be opened in a specific order, or the energy will not be able to flow.

Amon puts his hands on the back of the neck, which is pretty much near the sound chakra (truth, blocked by lies).

---The lie that he can take bending, away.---

He also puts his hands on the light chakra (insight, blocked by illusion).

---The illusion that you can't bend, and its gone.---
