The basic premise of Plato's cave allegory is to represent the nature of the human being, where true reality is hidden, false images and information are perceived as reality. In the allegory Plato tells the story of a man set on a Gnostic path. Prisoners sitting in a cave with their legs and necks chained since childhood, so that they cannot move or see each other, only look into the shadow on the wall in front of them; without realizing that they have three-dimensional bodies. These images are of humans and animals, carried by an invisible man in the background. Now imagine that one of the prisoners is released into the light, the Gnostic path will become painful and difficult, but slowly his eyes will begin to accept what he sees and his fundamentalist view of the world will begin to change; he sees everything through anarchic thinking and reasons. When he returns to the cave, his fellow prisoners will not recognize him or understand anything he says because he has developed new senses and perceptive abilities. This is the representation of human nature, we live in a cave with a false perception of reality that we have been told since childhood, but we must realize that these current perceptions are incomplete. To awaken the unconscious you need to experience reality and develop new senses. The cave overall incorporates the idea of ​​a movie theatre, where people watch life unfold on a screen, without knowing or wishing to know who is showing the film; only to sit in the darkness and stare at the screen. Many of us take what we see in the film as reality, without distinguishing between history and fantasy; they soon start behaving like the characters in the film. For example the twil......middle of paper......do not have individual autonomy despite the system claiming that we possess such fundamental freedom. From childhood the government and school system provide us with guidelines to follow and never question these guidelines. To free yourself from these guidelines you need to realize that everything is three-dimensional and begin your own Gnostic path. In summary, Plato's allegory of the cave describes the human condition, each of us is a prisoner shackled with a distorted illusion of reality. To acquire individual autonomy we must awaken the unconscious, we must kill our imperfection and free our senses. We cannot realize individual autonomy by looking at what is on the screen, but rather by using our consciousness, starting a Gnostic path and enlightening each other, then we can build our philosophical ideologies and come out of ignorance, that is, from the cave..
