If you watch the Guru episode, Guru Pathik explains that the sixt chakra, the one located at the center of the forehead, is the chakra that is blocked by illusion.

I have a hunch that Amon has mastered an advanced form of chi blocking that completely shut down that chakra, giving an illusion of permanent deprivation of bending, which isn’t gone, but merely blocked. once a waterbending healer or maybe the avatar learns how to unblock that chakra, the bender will regain his bending ability. it certainly is not energybending. if nothing else because of the light show, but also because out of a few hunderd people watching him doing that, a few would pick up on the fact he is in fact bending, and have a few words to say about the leader of an anti-bending movement being a bender :D.
