Line 102:

This love for Katara put Aang in an unforseen position as he goes to the Eastern Air Temple in "[[The Guru]]" to learn to control the Avatar State from [[List of Avatar: The Last Airbender minor secondary characters|Guru Pathik]]. Guru tells Aang that the control of the Avatar State involves the releasing of various emotions in the seven chakras spread throughout the body, including worldy attachment. In order to open the seventh chakra, Aang is told that he must let go of his attachment to Katara. He is reluctant but starts to do so, when he has a vision that Katara is in danger. Aang breaks his meditation and leaves to save her, despite Guru Pathik's warning that it would lock his chakra and he would never be able to enter the Avatar state again.

At the end of "[[The Crossroads of Destiny]]", Aang and Katara face overwhelming odds against Azula, Zuko, and the Dai Li. Believing that entering the Avatar State is their only hope, Aang isolates himself and meditates, hoping to let go of his attachment to Katara and unlock the seventh [[chakra]]. Though Aang began to release the chakra and entered the Avatar State, according to Nick.com's description of the "Celestial Avatar Spirit Aang", he is unable to complete the process due to the interruption caused by Azula's lightning bolt strike. Consequently, Aang was prevented from clearing the seventh chakra and mastering the Avatar State, leaving his loveattachment forto Katara intact.
