Socrates is a famous philosopher who lived in Ancient Greece and he had set up the basics of Greek philosophy. He was born in 470BC in Athens as a son of a stonecutter and a midwife.
His life as a philosopher started after his journey to Delphoi Temple, there he begun to wonder about what is right and what is wrong. He was said that he was the cleverest man living however, only thing he knew that didn't know a single thing; on the other hand, he knew that god wouldn't lie; so he begun to question people, who thought they knew everything. First he questioned politicians than poets and finally craftsman and he realized that they weren't wise and they didn't even know that. People who were questioned by Socrates thought they knew things that they actually didn't know. However, on the other hand, Socrates did knew that he didn't know and understood that he was wiser than the others, not because of what he knew but because of what he didn't knew. And this made him understood that what was told to him in the temple was right, he was wiser than the people who accuses himself to be wise.

In the ideals and methods of today's psychological medicine, the general psyche of the human mind has been influenced by historical and cultural forces, and various perspectives through time. Philosophers such as Plato has developed many methods and types of thoughts in understanding the human psyche that has greatly influenced the many defined concepts of psychology as known today.
In Plato's question how we know what …. Is? Is the underlying fundamental question that relates to the human psyche. As individuals, how do we really know what to know? For example, if you do not understand in how to tune a musical instrument, you will have to ask fundamentals questions in order to understand how to tune a musical instrument. As in the human psyche, Plato's asks the same question in order to understand the concept in how people know. Psyche is based on the theory of justice that has six fundamentals aspects such as: "faculties", "principles", "activities", "aspects", "instances" and "levels". Their nature and role have been characterized in ways influenced as much perhaps by the connotations of these terms as by the details of Plato's text. Subsequently, Psychology has been developed from the origins of the earliest philosophers such as Plato; an Athenian born Greek philosopher that believed that people were a "blank slate" at birth which can be changed to anything through their life time depending on the influence of surroundings (Various). In his quest of finding the true essence of the human psyche and the pursuit of the maintenance of the soul, Plato has philosophized through the teachings of Socrates within various concepts such as: Metaphysics "Platonic realism", Theory of Forms.

The philosophy of Plato

An allegory, by definition, is a figurative mode of representation conveying a meaning other then the literal. An allegory is referred to as a figure of language but it does not need to be expressed this way. It can be expressed in pictures, sculptures, and other forms of art. The “Allegory of the Cave” is of that used by Plato within his work, The Republic. This work is examined by his student Socrates and is found to be related to Plato’s “Metaphor of the Sun” and “analogy of the divided line.”
Plato’s Republic tries to illustrate the degrees in which our nature can be enlightened or unenlightened. Plato in a discussion with an acquaintance by the name Glaucon, urges him to imagine the condition of men living in a sort of cavernous chamber underground, with an entrance open to the light and a long passage all down the cave. Here the men have remained since childhood, chained by the leg and by the neck. The men cannot move and can only see what is in front of them. At a high distance up there is a light of a fire burning behind them, between said fire and the prisoners there is a parapet built along it. This is used to hide the performers who show their puppets along the top of the parapet. Behind the parapet, there are a number of people carrying various artificial objects, including figures of men and animals in wood or stone and various other materials. There objects are projected above the parapet. Some of the persons are talking while others remain silent.
