yes, the bit about the allegory of the cave is interesting. we are mostly just interpreting the shadows as if it was real, but it's not the real world. the part where he gives thanks to his wife is very endearing.

I am glad that he also touched upon the misunderstood theological motivations...Many people keep trying to "immanentize the eschaton" (bring about the end of the world, of time) by seeking "power" over one another. For them, the truth will only be realized through regret.

Teacher got a glimpse of unconditional love through relationship. In turn, it inspired him to humbly share himself with the world rather than try to control it. When you exit the cave and see the light of the sun, you will voluntarily go back into the cave to try to help free your siblings.
