This is an example of transcendentalism because it shows how they rely on nature and believe nature is very important. They believe that an "energy" or god is in all living things. In Emerson's essay, Nature, he states that, "Nature never became a toy to a wise spirit." (Emerson, 180) The Na'vi believed in this greatly and when the people tried to destroy it they fought back. Emerson also says that, " In the tranquil landscape, man beholds somewhat as beautiful as his own nature." (Emerson, 181)This is true to Avatar because the Na'vi i very majestic and so is their community, and there is a lot that is unknown of them.
