What would Plato say?
What would Plato say?
Every choice we make inevitably has consequences, so it makes sense to gain some understanding and guidance on how to go about making those choices.
Plato’s dialogues are a gold mine of knowledge on this very subject. Plato’s main character, Socrates, declared to be the wisest man in the world in 399 BC, said that he had an inner voice that guided him. Do we all have an ‘inner voice’? If so, how do we gain access to it? How do we hear it? How do we interpret what it’s saying? We will sit at the feet of these two great masters, and discover what they teach us in relation to these most important questions.
