Talk:Aang/@comment-67.84.32.105-20120625042241

What I realized, having seen the season finale of Legend of Korra, we still have Aang. After his talk with Yangchen, we know that the Avatar is supposed to give up his own spiritual needs, the need to reach enlightenment, in order to serve the physical world. In this case, killing Ozai would have prevented Aang's enlightenment. Aang did not kill Ozai or Yakone, and probably should have reached enlightenment, but after he died, the Avatar reincarnated, and Aang, a past life, is still tied to the earth. He never moved on to Nirvana. Aang got spiritually screwed over. And that makes me sad.
