During book 4 of Korra when korra faced her inner demon Zaheer and addressed what she needed he became her ally and helped her find self liberation. This is a real life practice in Buddhism called Chod. The ego is the root of all suffering, in the west we are taught to fight our inner demons but to no avail they multiply or get stronger. In eastern culture you do not fight your demons. Firstly demons arent flesh eating ghouls but demon simply means anything that prevents liberation. So the practice of Chod teaches you to become egoless and by doing so you cannot suffer from those demons any longer be addictions, anxiety, fears, depression, etc because you let go of the very thing they are attached to, your ego. Its a beautiful practice, it really is. Please if you with to grow and find a path to dissolving your suffering check it out, you can find a book called Feeding Your Demons by Tsultrim Allione. Its a beautiful book. If you have any questions please ask. -Raava
