The Allegory of the Cave is a description of an illusion of how people were brought up and controlled. The description of the cave sends off an illusion in which gives us a brief meaning of how society treats us as human beings in this world. As we grow on to a new age of knowledge we are taught to stay where we are and seek information due to what surrounds us rather then seek ourselves. Looking at the shadows of others that surround the people in the cave an anything that passes by them is what they believe exists only through the shadows.
Stating that as humans we follow one another, although in the book one of the humans in that cave saw the illusion. Understanding the vision of what really existed by parting ways out of the cave and seeking information believing to conceive the real light ahead of him.
