PLATO'S CAVE



"PLATO'S CAVE" is an allegory for the spiritual darkness which imprisons most people .... who live in a cave and think that the shadows cast by a flickering flame on the wall are "reality" ... when in fact the shadows are made by tricksters. 

The cave people are bound by chains of their own making ... they could free themselves at any time ... yet they are afraid of sunlight because it hurts their eyes. 

But should we shun the light and stay in the cave with them? 

Antinous the Gay God says throw off your chains ... leave the cave ... open your spiritual eyes ... and become accustomed to the Light ....
