as a year anticipated Marvel masterpiece "Doctor Strange" letting science fiction fans had a handful of burning brain Addiction. Some people came for the "scroll blessing", some came for the audiovisual feast of the 3D blockbuster, and some followed Doctor Strange to experience the experience of "crossing infinite dimensions and subverting the boundaries of time and space", but for me, more importantly, I further realized the illusion of time and space. , The meaning of life and death.
The movie is not spoiled, here I just want to share three impressive points.
1 Doctor Strange, the strange doctor of
magic and miracles
, lost the ability to use his hands in a car accident. At first, the arrogant and conceited scientist couldn't believe that there is a soul and faith. Well, the first lesson that Gu Yi mage gave him The lesson is the astral projection, an experience of the soul coming out of the body. When he instantly traversed the multi-dimensional universe and dimensional space, and personally experienced the soul out of his body, he finally chose to'surrender'.
In the Himalayas, Gu Yi said to Strange, you only have 2 minutes to use the magic you have learned to transform the gate of time and space, or you will be frozen to death. Doctor Strange has been unable to use mana because he doesn't believe in his abilities. He is fighting with his ego and controlling it. Gu Yi said to his disciples,'He has not yet surrender to surrender' (the translation in the film is awakening, is a free translation) here has a deeper meaning,'surrender means awakening! It is impossible for a person who cannot surrender to awaken, and an awakened person must be surrendered'.
Many books on spiritual growth talk about the power of surrender. To surrender is to let go of the control of the ego, to surrender is to let go of attachments, to believe in universal consciousness (the true self, God, God, the Creator), to believe that everything is the best arrangement, everything is It is the beauty of the universe. When you choose to surrender and decide to let go, it is the time to awaken and return to your true self. Of course, our Doctor Strange lived up to expectations, and returned through time and space within 2 minutes, and has since believed in the power of the true self.
In fact, we don’t have to be superstitious in magic, although on the level of quantum physics and energy, each of us is indeed a magician, and every thought of us is a sine wave, but on the level of our limited dimensions, perception is The frequency spectrum of is too narrow to be seen. When we concentrate our minds, we are changing the surrounding energy field in a small area, and miracles have already occurred. This is why our mindfulness can attract good, positive things to happen to us, and the same negative thoughts will also be attracted. Bad things do not come singly. This is the law of attraction of the universe.

The battle between light and darkness.
There is no dualism in the teachings of all the masters (not related to religion), such as Buddha and Christ Jesus. They are all united. There is no difference between darkness and light, and they will not distinguish between good and bad. , Good and evil, high and low, as long as there is a distinction, there will be boundaries, and there will be a sense of separation and division. The Dao Tongzong, as the "Tao De Jing" said, "all things bear yin and embrace yang", yin and yang are inherently interdependent and transformable.
Mr. Hasaya’s words are very beneficial, “In a dualistic world, we sometimes want to eliminate the bad and leave the good! But just like there is light, there is a shadow! As long as it exists, it will be behind us. Leave a shadow! When the shadow is truly eliminated, light will not exist! Let go of the pursuit of light, and darkness will no longer be a problem!" In the
higher cosmic dimension, there is no sense of distinction, but in a dualistic world, light To coexist with darkness is to coexist and coexist, as long as we learn to transform into the formless like Tai Chi, and not cling to the difference between light and darkness. Just as there must be sunlight behind the shadows, all we need is to turn around. Let go of attachment and separation, and you will realize that everything that happens is to bless me. Especially bad and dark people and things can help us grow and see the gifts behind them.
The demon Domam, much like a vision of the ego, began to threaten Doctor Strange with a stern tone,'I will kill you! ', to'you will die miserably', but facing the illusion that has escaped the limitations of time and space, Dr. Strange who has no fear, Dommam says more and more weakly,'What on earth do you want? 'In the end, the infinite loop of Doctor Strange almost collapsed, like a punctured balloon. This reminded me of the Moonlight Treasure Box in "A Westward Journey", and suddenly there was a sense of nonsense like the star master. The illusion of fear will be broken at once. It turned out to be a game of illusion. Splitting is the best trick of the ego (false ego). It will continue to add drama, forcing you to hit the wall and forcing you to collapse, but if you see that everything is an illusion, there will be no soil to nourish the ego. , Everything is so easy to break without attack.

Death gives life meaning to the
ancient master, The Anicent One (reminds me of the ancient existence mentioned in the "Book of the Earth"). The words she said before her death was very shocking, "Death gives your life meaning. meaning!". The followers of Domam are clinging to eternal life and fall into the illusion of'ego clinging', thus falling into the darkness of duality.
Does it really make sense to live in infinite time? If you have this mana that travels through time and space, you can constantly go back to the past, modify the script, or run to the future curiously to see if your future self has realized your dreams, will you continue to do it? The ego will do it, originally it is love to create a life script.
However, when you are obsessed with changing the past and the future, you lose your precious experience of the present. Because the past is in the past, although we will also regret and regret it, but without the "tribulations" and setbacks of the past, we will not grow and become who we are today. All occurrences are inevitable, and the universe gives you the experience of learning, growing, and understanding. And the future is determined by each current choice. Just like Mr. Bishan-An Qiumi’s cosmic broom diagram, each current choice will derive a different future. Even if you travel to the future, you will see only one branch, one It's just a possibility. And every choice you make now will change the future. So the future is also an illusion, why bother with it?
Is death really terrible? Zhuangzi celebrated the death of his wife. In "Westward Journey", the ancestor of Bodhi said, "How happy is life, and why death is hard." The cycle of life and death is originally the law of the natural universe. The moment of death will break away from the physical body and the limitations of the three-dimensional confined space, and return to the unity of origin. That is a time worth celebrating!
[Phoenix] This is a film worth pondering and understanding. Everyone will have different understandings and feelings. In this dualistic world of saha, we can have our own different choices to create our own world. It's just an experience game field. When your consciousness is constantly expanding, living in the present, and connecting with the true self, you will jump out of the secular, material, Newtonian, limited, and rational "illusory world", and come to the otherworldly, spiritual, quantum, and infinite. In the sensuous and perceptual'real world', you are the magician of your life, and you can realize the meaning of life and death through the illusion of cross-domain time and space!
