The Point of No Return (DON'T PANIC!)

"OPEN YOUR EYE" As Dr. Strange confronts the Ancient One about healing a paralyzed man, Pangborn, the response is not one of medical jargon but of perception: "I convinced him that he could." At the surface, this statement might appear to be about mind over matter, but it delves deeper into the essence of healing. The dialogue taps into the heart of a powerful idea: the role of belief in recovery. It questions the boundaries of what we know as possible, nudging us to ask: If the cells are the building blocks of our physical being, can our psyche mold them?
