“It is the task of the enlightened not only to ascend to learning and to see the good but to be willing to descend again to those prisoners and to share their troubles and their honors, whether they are worth having or not. And this they must do, even with the prospect of death.” ― Plato

plato was initiated into the mystery schools; he was a bonesman of his time.

his 'republic' is the root of elitism, communism, fascism and similar crap we see today as the nwo.

So you disagree with/dislike the Allegory of the Cave? I think it's a valuable read, Plato (the individual) is long gone.

The Mystery Schools were not bad in and of themselves. It is the misuse of them that became the psychopathic skullduggery we see today.
