Another master piece from Marvel Comics, Doctor Strange is a perfect superhero
fiction that keeps the potential to deliver the message – “reinforce your powers
with faith in self.”
The admirers of the movie would definitely agree
that Doctor Strange is not just a depiction of superpowers in motion but a galaxy
of lucid emotions, wonderful star cast, award winning visual effects and most
significantly the awe-inspiring life lessons that I am highly pleased to share in
this post. I am a fan of Marvel Studios
but this is the first time ever that reflection of my thoughts has been so
prolific ever since I watched this flick!

Grab these marvellous life lessons as I map
the real world principles with the brilliant reel work of Scott Derrickson (the
director) and Benedict Cumberbatch (the pivotal character as Dr. Stephen Strange).
#1. Do Not Lose Focus Of The Present Moment
A single second of defocused attention in
the midst of a demanding action can demand heaps of ugly and undesirable
moments of your life. That tiny lapse of time is enough to deactivate your
sensory organs making you numb to track anything. It is better to be vigilant
of the distracting pop-ups in that moment than to enter a self-disrupting state
later!
Reference From Movie: Stephen Meets Accident
Stephen tries to multi-task the act of
driving and taking a phone call not realising his soaring velocity. This
blunder ends up in a life-threatening accident reducing him to piteous
dysfunctional hands.
#2. Honour Your Blessed Talents Before They
Are Gone
Money is the real honey in the world of
Snobs! Isn’t it! Some blessed experts get entirely blinded by the dazzle of name
and fame. They fail to remember that it is just a part of the total reward earned
for serving the world. Whenever this besotted trait creeps over you, remind
yourself to respect the profoundness of your gifted passion lest the nature seizes
it back.
Reference From Movie: Stephen – The
Snobbish Neurosurgeon
The unfortunate fatal mishap leads Stephen to
realise his physical inability to hold anything. This unbelievably shocks him to
the core! He desires to gain his lost prowess at any cost. To relieve his
frenzied life, he begins his journey to find a cure to revive the nerve damage
in his fingers.
#3. Wisdom Lies In Acknowledging The
Existence Of The Unknown
In first place, accept the fact that you do
not know everything! Accept that you are ready to relearn! Accept that all what
you know does not suffice to achieve your purpose! Accept that you are ready to
welcome the truth and enter the realms of the unknown! Once you accept all
this, you unlock massive potential to explore the vast possibilities uncovering
the solution. It is only when you do not know something, then you begin to
learn that.
Reference From Movie: Order From The Master
Guided by the master, Stephen is told,
“Forget everything that You Think You Know”! Initially, it gets difficult for
his logical mind to agree with the existence of the dimensions beyond our 3-D
physical world, but then a sudden encounter with the astral plane aligns him to
tame his senses. Once he prepares himself for acknowledging his hunger to know
the mystical universal powers, he succeeds in knowing deeper realities.
#4. Real Power Lies In Surrendering
The one who surrenders, rules! This universal
truth is known only by those brave souls who challenge to shut the voice of
their silly “ego”. Surrendering doesn’t mean giving your power away but
exercising it in its true nature. Ironically, too few know about this reality! Surrendering
your ego results in the magical practice of aligning your “thoughts, words and
actions” effortlessly. This is the real beauty of your real power!
Reference From Movie: Order From The
Master
After learning the truth of “surrendering”,
Stephen is completely startled by this fact! His perplexity highlights the
general standard perception. As he closely observes the powers of his masters,
his confusion instantaneously transforms into confidence. He receives the
wisdom to empower his mind, body and spirit as he orchestrates his thoughts,
words and actions.
#5. Learn To Live Above Your Negatives
From the womb of darkness, light is born; and
the absence of light once again reveals the existence of darkness. The
experience of “Pleasure” is only possible because of the existence of “Pain”. Experiencing
adversity is as much significant as experiencing success! This is the Universal
Law of Polarity. When you understand this law and learn to balance, you succeed
in working towards your life’s purpose. It is then when neither the “Positive” can
impact you with egomania nor the “Negative” can affect you with unworthiness!
Reference From Movie: Wise Words From The
Master
Stephen’s endeavour of learning the truth
and practicing the right way is mired by one doubt – “How To Wipe Your
Negatives?” to which he receives the answer – “You Don’t Wipe Out Your
Negatives, You Learn To Live Above Them!” Stephen comprehends this law, wears
the armour of courage and becomes a balanced being focussing rightfully on his
purpose.
#6. Conquer Time With Consistency
Exact transition of thoughts and words into
action is magical. But what makes that magic works forever is the continuity of
that action. When you do a certain thing with unending determination, you empower
your mind, body and spirit with super power of winning over time. In literal
terms, you develop strength to live your dreams and stand out as a winner!
Reference From Movie: The Awe-Inspiring Climax
Stephen creates a mind blowing timeless
trap for destroying the destructive force of the dark dimension. He uses the
power of consistency to reverse time with an illusion of appearing each time after
being crushed to death by the devil Dormammu. Stephen’s relentless efforts of
practicing mind control makes him nullify the event of his demise. Agitated by
the infinite loop, Dormammu gives up on his ill intention towards Stephen and
hence Stephen succeeds in his mission to save planet Earth.
# 7. No One Has Ever Achieved Victory All Alone
Our world lies within each other. With a
fair balance of demand and supply, nature always strikes perfect balance by
placing you with the right kind of people in a right atmosphere with right
amount of resources. It may never feel right in the beginning, and at times you
may even face turbulence! But, as you overcome that “unwanted” phase, you are
able to sight the complete picture; an unknown instinct wraps your heart with a
strange feeling – a strength never ever felt before! This happens each time you
“Evolve”.
But the ones who make it really possible are your “mentors”, “supporters”, “friends” and even your “enemies”. You believe it or not YOU NEED ALL OF THEM to bring out the BEST in you!
But the ones who make it really possible are your “mentors”, “supporters”, “friends” and even your “enemies”. You believe it or not YOU NEED ALL OF THEM to bring out the BEST in you!
Reference From Movie: People In Stephen’s Life Who Strengthen Him
Christine (The Lover) – Her love and faith strengthens
Stephen emotionally
The Ancient One (The Mentor) – She teaches Stephen
the mystic arts to unleash his hidden powers
Mordo and Wong (Supporters/Friends) – They
constantly guide and support Stephen in his quest to fulfil his purpose
Kaecilius (The Threat) – He makes Stephen
exercise his powers to the fullest (thus strengthening him in disguise)
# 8. Give Attention To Those Little Details
So you are just rightly focussed on your
goal, and then out of blue, a gush of wind diverges you from your path! You
feel inexplicable and lost! Well, there’s always a cosmic reason... that’s always
on purpose! Life situations are not like crystals; they are like ice-bergs that
eventually get showed up in their real avatar.
Whenever you are pulled-down, there’s surely a universal cause that wants you to have the 360 degree perspective. And once you gain the absolute insight, you are well prepared to accomplish a greater goal by fulfilling a purpose at a higher level of existence.

Reference From Movie: Series Of Instances In Stephen’s Story
When Stephen met that unfortunate casualty,
he never ever thought in his wildest dreams that he could become the super
power and save planet Earth from other dimensions’ destructive forces. As the
series of events started unfolding in Stephen’s life, astonishing revelations
began strengthening his identity. Stephen’s keenness to know, study, practice
and implement his knowledge into action highlights the significance of
“attention to details”. From his most horrifying life’s experience was born his
mystical mighty powers.
