    I wonder why a new avatar was not born becuase aang did die from azula for a few minutes but then katara brouth him back with the spirt water from the north pole that is weird becuase right when roku died anng was born just saying that.


    doesn't work that way

    Aang's "soul," if you will, has to leave his body and enter the body of the next avatar


    I think the "avatar spirit" (which is different from the soul of the person as in Aang, Kyoshi, Roku etc) finds a suitable person sometime between hours or days after an avatar death, and usually not revealed until he or she is 16(Aang was an exception), and also remember that the baby is "conceived" ( without the avatar spirit) 9 months before their actual birth (unless born premature)

    when Aang dies, his soul doesn't enter another body, only the "avatar spirit" does

    each avatar is a person with its unique soul and also the "avatar spirit"

    and the avatar spirit is what links all past avatar's souls to each other


    ah, ok, that makes sence
