    i don't understand what you're asking.
    healing is another aspect to waterbending. & maybe what the guru does which i dont know what to call it like when he found aang by connecting pathways from appa to aang and just how aang found appa and momo in the swamp ' what im saying it that maybe thats airbenders aspect of healing???? and i also think the guru knows airbenders and use to be one but wasnt able to airbend just like sokka??? but also might just be able to use that connection thing he does just like how some nonwaterbenders can only heal. and if the guru teaches aang or aang become more better at finding things as when he found appa in the swamp, maybe he can find airbenders the same way???
    that 'finding people' thingy was an 'avatar thing' as sokka put it, when the guru did it it's because the guru is just cool like that.
    your answer didnt even make since "bc the guru cool like that"ha, but the only two people that have been involved with airbenders (aang and the Guru) r the only two in the show already that have use this spiritual bonding to locate things. you know irohs been to the spirit world and i haven't seen him do that??? or what about the powerful firelord who could use this talent (since you think anybody can do this) to find the avatar instead of searching the world for him. basically i think the only people who can do that are AIRBENDERS!!!
    The Guru is most definitely not airbender. I'm not really basing this on anything but airbenders usually bend air.
    well sokkas from the southern water tribe and he cant bend water so does that mean he does not know where any water benders are or know the lifestyle and techniques of water bending?? what i was saying is that the guru is from the air nomads and is probly one of those people like sokka who wasnt born to bend elements!!,and im pretty sure every other aspect of the guru was all airnomads!!! and lets talk about avatar cause this is a theoury to find airbenders that have been scattered around the world to hide, lets talk about that important theory, instead of this childreish bunny crap and think that we so smart bc we can divide 1 into 3 and get .3333.....woopdee dooo basil.

    Just so you know all air nomads are airbenders.



    where did u hear that at???
    the creators.


    hahah clearyl you all dont know what your talkin about, please site the epidose or cooment from mike and bryan where it says that??? like i said earlier sokkas from the southern water tribes and he cant bend water wouldnt there be people like that in the air nomad society??? YES
    Yeah, I don't know what I'm talking about, but who's asking the question here? Mike and Brian stated all air nomads are airbenders and it has something to do with their spirituality. They seem to not be entirely sure how genetic bending really is, so in the Fire, Water, and Earth places, either you can bend or you can't. However, all the air nomads were benders.

    ha it does say that, i didnt know that i wonder y it would be like that maybe its soppost to stop the theory of having airbenders still out there that dont know it yet. also i found out that the guru is 150 year old!! and he is spirtually enlightened and helps people clear there chakras. and it does say he is a Personal friend of airbenders in the day, so maybe he has used his talents of cosmic energy to find airbenders?? and why does the firelord use this technique to find the future avatar???????

    It's a longshot but maybe he still had rage because he was unable to prove he had changed to the Gaang. I know is not a real good answer but it's the one I gave to myself in the episode.

    The live action movies are going to be adaptations of the 3 books. We don't know what the animated movies will be though.

    I know Aang was angry and wasn't thinking clearly. But what was he thinking in "The Awakening" ? In his current condition flying into the Fire nation would've proved fatal. If anyone saw his Arrow and found out he was the Avatar, they barrage him with Fireballs. And in the condition he was in, Aang couldn't possibly fight back. And what if Combustion Man found him while he was still weary and injured? That would've no doubt been Aang's final battle.

    A friendship, something new t talk about? I think that's very high, Zuko and Katara need to work through their problems to help Aang.
