Mordo: STOP! Tampering with continuum probability is forbidden! Strange: I was just doing exactly what it said in the book! Wong: And what did the book say, about the dangers of performing that ritual? Strange: I don't know, I hadn't gotten to that part yet. Strange: What is this? My mantra? Mordo: It's the Wi-Fi password. Strange? The Ancient One: Have you seen that before in a gift shop? Strange: Teach me. Dark places where powers older than time lie, ravenous and waiting. Some benevolent and life-giving, others filled with malice and hunger. This universe is only one of an infinite number. Open your eye! The Ancient One: You think you know how the world works? You think that this material universe is all there is? What is "real"? What mysteries lie beyond the reach of your senses? At the root of existence, mind and matter meet. Strange: Why are you doing this to me? The Ancient One: To show you just how much you don't know.
A place where the soul exists apart from the body. Strange: What just happened? The Ancient One: For a moment, you entered the astral dimension. Strange: What's in that tea? Psilocybin? LSD? The Ancient One: It's just tea.
BUT I SEE THROUGH YOU! Strange: What did you just do to me?! The Ancient One: I pushed your astral form out of your physical form.
Strange: Oh, you think you see through me, do you? Well, you don't. The Ancient One: You think too little of yourself. We're just another tiny, momentary speck in an indifferent universe. There is no such thing as spirit! We are made of matter and nothing more. Strange: No, I reject it because I do not believe in fairy tales about chakras or energy or the power of belief. And now on hearing that it can be widened, in ways you can't imagine, you reject the possibility. You've spent your whole life trying to widen that keyhole. The Ancient One: You're a man looking at the world through a keyhole. The Ancient One: Master Kaecilius, that ritual will only bring you sorrow.
