At the beginning of the film, Morpheus asked Neo if you feel that everything around you is like a dream sometimes (can't remember the meaning of the original words) In fact, everyone has such moments or many people still have such moments. Being in such a chaotic state, I do not understand the meaning of life, and I am pushed forward by many external forces. Many times, it is not that we are living, but that life is leading us. Later, through the enlightenment of Morpheus, Neo gradually understood this. The world of his true self, but he still can't understand all of them. When they entered the real world, they were sitting in the car. Neo was surprised and looked out the window at the familiar shops and streets, but he already knew everything at that time. It's fake. At that time, he actually started to have awakening consciousness, but he still didn't understand the meaning of awakening. Finally, at the end of the film, he successfully broke through the boundaries of his thoughts. He could do what Morpheus said before "There is no need to hide from bullets "At this time, his self-consciousness is really fully awakened.

What is the awakening of self-consciousness? I think it may be the change of the three realms that people often say: looking at the mountain is the mountain, looking at the mountain, not the mountain, looking at the mountain or the mountain

  • [on the war that devastated the Real World]

    Morpheus: We don't know who struck first, us or them. But we do know it was us that scorched the sky. At the time, they were dependent on solar power. It was believed they would be unable to survive without an energy source as abundant as the sun.
