Nel percorso che Platone indica per l’anima, al Bene che è alla sommità nulla potrà opporsi se non presupponendolo. Quel principio illumina le idee, quegli universali , che non sono visibili agli occhi sensibili, ma che soli fanno abbandonare la “fiducia” mondana sempre intrisa di confusione...

«Desde hace miles de años los humanos han intentado comprender el origen del mundo, así como la aparición del mal (y su consecuencia, el sufrimiento) en este mundo. A menudo lo han presentado en forma de mitos, por lo que en los libros sagrados de todas las religiones se encuentran relatos simbólicos...
