Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Dojjen’s teaching that 'fear is the only poison' and that one must find the ‘still point’ within oneself (beat_e6d0daabd95a42a1) is mirrored in the climax when the Doctor instructs the crowd to resist the Mara by 'finding their still point' (beat_eb043ecc0b19d148), extending the message to the audience."
