Political symbolism
it portrays how humans are stuck in a world of
illusions, unaware of deeper truths. By becoming
more self-awake and questioning their surroundings,
they can break free from this illusion and understand
the world more profoundly.
it emphasizes the importance of understanding
abstract concepts (ideas) through reasoning, rather
than relying solely on our limited experiences in the
physical world. This suggests that true knowledge
comes from deep thinking and reflection, rather than
just accepting surface-level opinions based on what
we see and feel.
