Retort - Lee Evans - Bog

In 360 B.C.E Plato has Socrates describe a group of people who have lived chained to the wall of a cave all of their lives, facing a blank wall. The people watch shadows projected on the wall from objects passing in front of a fire behind them and give names to these shadows. The shadows are the prisoners' reality. Socrates explains how the philosopher is like a prisoner who is freed from the cave and comes to understand that the shadows on the wall are not reality at all, for he can perceive the true form of reality rather than the manufactured reality that is the shadows seen by the prisoners. The inmates of this place do not even desire to leave their prison; for they know no better life. The prisoners manage to break their bonds one day and discover that their reality was not what they thought it was.This story of unfolding enlightenment has repeated itself throughout human history. Lee Evans serves as your mentor as you move beyond the wall of the cave of illusion into the world of reality. This book, the eleventh on the theme of what it means to be a heretic in a totalitarian society is focused on the idea that we exist in the world as depicted by George Orwell in 1984. Many believe that it did not come to past. My assertion is that it has. Take this book it might change your life.
