Narrative Connection
How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Padmasambhava's refusal to flee the monastery (Episode 9) parallels Songsten's possession by the Intelligence remaining even after abandonment (Episode 10). Both reflect blind devotion leading to corruption."
