Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"Tegan’s attempt to mentally assert reality by willing Dukkha away (beat_33e7edb8c59953b7) escalates when Dukkha creates a second Tegan, challenging her perception of self (beat_0f8e44f76c2611fb). This progression from control fantasy to surreal fragmentation represents a psychological breakdown under surreal duress."
