5 Life Lessons and Moral Value In "Doctor Strange (2016)" (Spoilers Alert!)​

5 Life Lessons and Moral Value In "Doctor Strange (2016)" (Spoilers Alert!)​​

​1) Getting our overly-inflated egos out of the way allows us to achieve greatness.

By deciding to live to protect others and not just for himself, Stephen Strange aka Doctor Strange stepped into his greater destiny to protect earth from spiritual threats in the astral plane. He was willing to sacrifice himself to save the earth and that showed how far he had progressed as a person.

2) We gain control in life by surrendering control to a higher power.

Stephen Strange was unable to conjure a portal to a different location before he surrendered control to the energy. The Ancient One teleported him to a high point on Mount Everest and left him there to decide: Will he freeze to death because of refusal to let go of his ego, or will he surrender control, flow with the energy and finally be able to control it?

3) When we stop looking at the world through our 'little keyhole' perspectives and begin to have an open mind, we can see the bigger picture.

Stephen Strange arrived at Kamar-Taj as a very rude and arrogant man, thinking that he knew it all. When the Ancient One forced his astral form out of his physical body, he was humbled and able to see that he actually knew very little about how the world worked. In his amazement, he begged the Ancient One to teach him the way of the mystic arts.

4) It is almost impossible to stop a persistent, determined and patient person.

Doctor Strange used the Eye of Agamotto to create an infinite time loop inside the Dark Dimension that trapped himself and Dormammu in the same moment forever. Driven to insanity and feeling trapped by the same scene happening over and over again, Dormammu agreed to leave Earth if Strange broke the loop.

5) Nothing good can ever come from striking deals with demons.

Being deceived by Dormammu, Kaecilius and his followers used the stolen pages to summon him from the Dark Dimension where time does not exist and all can live forever. In the end, Kaecilius and his followers were stripped of their flesh and absorbed into the Dark Dimension to suffer for all eternity. Not the kind of eternal life that he was expecting wasn't it?
