How many generations does it take for a person to awaken? The answer is: no matter how many generations pass, people will never awaken. If you don't believe it, just tell them how big and beautiful the outside world is. People will only band together and beat you to death, sealing your mouth. Actually, the logic behind this is simple: humans are products of their environment. To change oneself, one must change the environment and switch circles. This is why we often say, we need to go out more and see the world—it's through action that we understand, not through understanding that we act. Only the environment can change a person; people can never change other people.
