Interesting. I would really like to know with some plausibility then what happens that makes this flesh-and-bone resurrection possible. She would need a body - preferrably the Avatar body she had before, but I would really think that the people buried it once it was clear that her soul is with Eywa. And something would have to be different in terms of the spiritual or neural world which suddenly allows even to pull someone back from the realms of Eywa, which certainly has to be even more powerful than transferring a sould to another body. Where would that power come from?

BTW - was there a discussion somewhere yet as to why the NA'Vi do have such a ritual at all? After all Grace probably is the first time there would be the need for such a ritual to be performed.
