While Pathik is not the Avatar, his focus on spirituality and how in shape he was when he met Aang could help him continue living for a while. When Guru Pathik meets Appa, he mentions that he had a vision of Aang and Appa years ago that led him to take up residence in the Eastern Air Temple to wait for them. This means that before the vision, he lived somewhere else.
Perhaps he traveled back to his home or, keeping in touch with the Air Nomad traditions he practiced, roamed around the world and continued to teach people. Pathik flees to a major trading center in the Earth Kingdom. There, he becomes the apprentice of the Herbalist at that time, a woman named Kuwabara. Pathik is told rumors of Aang by two boys that live in the city, named Tamaki and Mori. After Kuwabara's death, and Pathik becomes the Herbalist, Pathik takes on an uninterested apprentice, Hebi.
Pathik learns of the fall of the Air Temples to the Fire Nation. A few days later, Taku is attacked by the Fire Nation. All citizens of the city are killed, Hebi, Mori, and Tamaki being killed by Afiko himself, who was leading the attack. Guided by the presence of an unknown spirit , Pathik was able to escape using with quick thinking, luck, and the element of surprise. Afterwards, he regretted leaving, thinking it was his selfishness that made him decide to leave.
After the battle, Pathik wanders aimlessly across the Earth Kingdom, making his way unintentionally toward its northern mountains. He lives on a mountain next to the Northern Air Temple , depressed and dejected. After many years, he witnesses people move into the temple, running from the Fire Nation. This seems to wake him up, and he leaves the mountain for Ba Sing Se , led by the mysterious spirit.
While the rest of the citizens are hurrying to the Earth Kingdom Royal Palace , the unknown spirit tells Pathik to follow the Dai Li to the battle. He is stopped by his friend Usami , but he easily gets away in the large crowd. On the way, he is held captive for a short time by a man from the Fire Nation who had made his way past the Dai Li without them noticing. The man asks him the way to the palace, and Pathik gives him the information. Pathik is released and the man hurries back to his general to relay the information.
Pathik quickly alerts the Dai Li, expecting them to only capture the man, but instead, they kill him. Soon afterword, they learn that he is Lu Ten , General Iroh's son. Pathik feels incredibly guilty, because he feels as if he hadn't alerted the agents, Lu Ten wouldn't have been killed. He falls into unconsciousness soon after realizing this. In a dream, Avatar Roku speaks to Pathik. He tells him to travel to the Eastern Air Temple to wait for Aang.
He also tells the Guru that it was not that had been his guide. Pathik awakens and hurries out of Ba Sing Se. He disguised himself as a Dai Li Agent in order to get past the guards at the gate. With the help of the spirit, he makes his way through the battle going on in the Agrarian Zone. He pretends to attack the Fire Nation camp with other Earth Kingdom forces. Instead, he makes his way to the docks where the Earth Kingdom ferries are kept.
He leaves the city toward the Air Temple. When he gets there, he realizes that his chakras are blocked. Appa flew off, heading to Ba Sing Se.
However, the guru's note was intercepted by Long Feng , but was later returned to Aang. Aang eventually arrived at the Eastern Air Temple and discovered Guru Pathik meditating atop the same pillar he was on before Appa's departure. Guru Pathik introduced himself as a spiritual brother to the monks and a close friend of Monk Gyatso. Aang asked the guru how he planned to teach him to open and control the Avatar State, to which the guru replied that he must first bring balance to himself before he can bring balance to the world.
He first asked Aang to drink a strange liquid. Aang did so without any qualms before he spat it out, surprised by the disgusting onion and banana concoction. Pathik explained the concept and importance of chakras to Aang. At the Eastern Air Temple, he began Aang's instruction of the chakras , educating the young Avatar of the nexuses of metaphysical and biophysical energy in the human body. In order to master the Avatar State, Pathik told Aang that he must first open all seven chakras of the body.
After he determined that Aang had absolutely no knowledge of the nature of chakras, Pathik proceeded with a visual representation. Using a pond clogged with algae, he successfully explained to Aang the concept of chakras. He stated that by removing the clogs between pools, the water was allowed to flow, just as energy was allowed to flow through the body when the seven chakras were opened.
There were in total seven chakras within the body, each with a different purpose and type of blockage; an intense sensation resulted from the opening of them all. Pathik warned that the process of opening the chakras could not be halted once it had begun - it had to be completed in order to succeed. Aang accepted this risk and they began the process. Guru Pathik successfully guided Aang through the opening of the first six chakras. However, once Aang learned that to open the seventh and final chakra he would have to let go of his feelings of attachment for Katara , he refused.
Guru Pathik attempted to convince him otherwise, but when Aang had a vision of Katara in trouble, he left the Eastern Air Temple to rescue her. Pathik's final words before Aang's departure was a warning that Aang risked locking the final chakra and that he would not be able to enter the Avatar State at all.
Pathik had the ability to read a person's emotions and feelings by examining their chi , as he demonstrated when he read Appa's. In addition, Pathik could sense the energy connections between two individuals and enable them to find each other over great distances, such as when he revealed to Appa that Aang was in Ba Sing Se.
