Problem Statement

Let the Nagel point of triangle ABCABC be NN. We draw lines from BB and CC to NN so that these lines intersect sides ACAC and ABAB in DD and EE respectively. MM and TT are midpoints of segments BEBE and CDCD respectively. PP is the second intersection point of circumcircles of triangles BENBEN and CDNCDN. l1l_1 and l2l_2 are perpendicular lines to PMPM and PTPT in points MM and TT respectively. Prove that lines l1l_1 and l2l_2 intersect on the circumcircle of triangle ABCABC.
