[00:00:00]Plato did not write a myth.

[00:00:02]He left a report [music] on the human condition that is more relevant today than it was 2,400 years ago.

[00:00:15]Plato's cave is not a metaphor about the past.

[00:00:22]We were conditioned [music] to stare at a wall of shadows and call it my life.

[00:00:29]Distant does not want you to break free because your fixed attention on the wall is what sustains their empire.

[00:00:39]They project fear, [music] scarcity, and constant comparison so you never question who is holding the torch and staging the [music] theater.

[00:00:45]You believe you are the shadow, your bank account, your opinions, the images you post on Instagram.

[00:00:54]These are projections on the wall.

[00:00:58]That existential [music] exhaustion no form of entertainment can cure is the pain of living a life watching other people live theirs instead of living your own.

[00:01:08]When you decide to leave the confines of that cave, you encounter the force of revelation.

[00:01:13]The sunlight hurts your eyes at first, but you soon discover that the world outside has no bars. You are the light that makes vision possible.

[00:01:21]Many feel the cave crumbling.

[00:01:23]>> [music] >> Do you know where to run?

[00:01:24]That is why we created the from ego to I am portal to be the map for that ascent.

[00:01:29]Walk into the sun.

[00:01:31]Comment, code, [music] or click the link in the bio.

[00:01:34]Leave the cave.

[00:01:36]The sun is waiting for you.
