[vedicshastras]

"The dialogues of Plato are so largely stamped with the characters of sovereign good, that they are calculated to benefit in a certain degree even those who are incapable of penetrating their profundity. They can tame a savage sophist, like Thrasymachus in the Republic; humble the arrogance even of those who are ignorant of their ignorance; Make those to become proficients in political, who will never arrive at theoretic virtue; and, in short, like the illuminations of deity, wherever there is any portion of aptitude in there recipients, they purify, irradiate, and exalt." - Thomas Taylor the Platonist ________________________________________ #onephilosophia #philsophia #thomastaylortheplatonist #platosrepublic #platonicphilosophy #platonism #platonicphilosopher #platonist #neoplatonism #neoplatonic #neoplatonist #plato (at Vedic Shastras) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFznP61FhtI/?igshid=1kpnjs7qeaahe

[vedicshastras]

"Socrates: The lovers of common stories and of spectacles delight in fine sounds, colors, and figures, and everything which is compounded of these; but the nature of beauty itself their dianoetic part is unable to discern and admire. Glaucon: That is certainly so. Socrates: But as to those then who are able to approach this beauty itself, and to behold it as it is in itself, must they not be few in number? Glaucon: Extremely so." - Excerpt from Plato's Republic _____________________________________________ Artist: trentkuhn_art #onephilosophia #philosophia #platosrepublic #plato #platonicphilosophy #platonicphilosopher #platonist #platonism #neoplatonism #neoplatonic #neoplatonist #beauty #theone #thebeautiful #thegood #noetic #dianoetic (at Vedic Shastras) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCAV40unRJq/?igshid=3eo048493clk

When a man faces the thought of death , there come into his mind many anxieties which did not exist before.

Plato, The Republic

Compelling passage from #platosrepublic #socrates

Society

All societies brainwash their citizens to a certain extent. This happens because societies are not formed around reason and logic. Understand how you have been brainwashed(not because someone is constantly attempting to brainwash you but because most people in society do not have different opinions about certain issues, therefore the same message gets repeated repeatedly and will eventually be absorbed by the individual as the default answer consciously or subconsciously. Some of this you have internalized(some is unavoidable to internalize) erase It. Accept only logic and reasoning. Question everything internally.
