I agree with the second and first comments. Someone had a theory of Lin soon losing her bending, which encourages korra to look to the spiritual side of bending. They say this become of Lin's ominous dialogue and brief scenes, plus her unwavering willpower. She's most likely at this point. It makes sense with your theory too.

Also, I came here because I don't believe that Amon is energy bending like everyone else seems to. I think he's just locking a chakra, which makes sense because he always does it on the forehead and that represents Illusion. I highly, highly doubt that Amon truly can cleanse the world of bending. Once he takes the ability away, it's still dormant within that person, similar to how aang's avatar state was dormant until the end of book 3. Bending will always be passed to the next generation, whether it be by benders, nonbenders, or even exbenders. Bending can happen in any family, even if the parents are nonbenders, such as katara. Nonbenders can happen even if the parents are benders, such as aang and katara's son bumi. It's not as simple as Amon is making it seem and since he's not stupid I'm assuming he knows this and is just using the equalists as a ploy for power. Sorry if I didn't explain it good, but It's kind of hard. My theory of course, it'll probably be wrong =] the writers are very creative. Korra is going to need to learn about the chakras and spirituality if she plans on defeating amon.
