“The Allegory of the Cave” & What it Means for You!

Today I want to have a conversation with you about the allegory of the cave that Plato described thousands of years ago and how we can apply that into our modern world and our personal lives.

Key points of what you’ll learn:
-The Allegory of the Cave talks about some chained prisoners in a cave facing a wall and watching shadows that were being projected from behind them. All they were doing all day long in their lives was to watch these shadows and they were 110% convinced that reality was what was happening on that wall. One of the prisoners woke up from the dream, unchained himself, left the cave and realized that there was a whole beautiful world out there and that the Sun was the Source and not the darkness of the cave.
-This allegory can help us right now to understand what's going on in our lives and to help us awaken from the dream on 3 different levels. The 1st level is in your personal life and things about yourself that you are chained by, repetitive patterns, areas you feel stuck and that you just can't change. The 2nd level is looking at things that perhaps we were oblivious to before about what's been going on for years all around the globe and how we've been like the puppets that have been manipulated and brainwashed to think and to feel a certain way. And the 3rd level is the ultimate awakening to who we truly are and not who the ego has told us we are.
-The truth passes through three stages: Stage one it is ridiculed, second stage it is violently opposed and third stage it’s accepted as self-evidence. If you have been chained and you're suffering and you're sick and tired of staring at that wall, maybe it is time to get out of the prison & see that there is a better way!
Which of the 3 levels do you resonate with the most? I hope this conversation has inspired you in some way. If you think of somebody else that might also benefit from this please share it with them.
