Can people go into the avatar state?

Yes, in the "Avatar: The Last Airbender" series, individuals can enter the Avatar State, a powerful trance that enhances their bending abilities and connects them to their past lives. This state is primarily accessible to the Avatar, the embodiment of all four elements. However, experienced waterbenders can also access a similar state through the use of the moon's energy. The Avatar State is triggered by strong emotional responses, particularly when the Avatar is in danger.
