Boththe similar line as the sun and the allegory of the cave form a single unitbecause they can find the differences and opposites.
Real and artificial, good and evil, light anddarkness and may go on the dualities that arise but the important thing is thatit is precisely here, according to Plato, where the unit is made up through thecontradictions so demanding that the soul in its search through reflection andreaches the One God, the harmony.
We can see how for Plato is thedivision line between opinion and knowledge, between the sensible world to thesenses and the world that encourages understanding. aquelllas things that areonly two possible interpretations, only that which is contradictory tostimulate the soul to wonder, to question and raise the world of ideas,knowledge true to the essence of things.
We found a true sun and a fake sun, a true light, and a false light. The firstis the truth, which enlightens is the reflection is good, the ideal world isshaken to the soul, it must look to where the Greek man.
Thesecond, the false is the opinion, is what makes them see that their sensesperceive shadows of objects arificiale not real. What you see is not the resultof the study, but the concern of the perception through the senses.
Freedomis achieved only when the soul leaves slave or ignorant of the darkness,seeming to elevate his soul and achieves up to a perfect knowledge it is onlypossible under the sun (good).
In each of these contrasts Plato manages toestablish that the man passes from one state to another by always seeking toachieve. The path should always lead the soul to the surface to the essence ofthe wisdom of ignorance and slavery to freedom to free others. This way is noneother than the Paideia or the essence of the MSMA. It requires work and ongoingeffort in which the will was tempered and the reason is heightened. Is a pathof contemplation, study, which also makes him return to his old home in guidingothers towards the ideal state of man.
