"Know thyself," is inscribed in stone at the entrance to the Temple
of Apollo at Delphi. For Socrates, "The unexamined life is not
worth living." Plato likens us to one spending life chained in a
dark cave. It seems that some people, living two or three thousand
years ago, had discovered something. They had opened the door to
something they regarded as having the highest value some insight
that makes life worth living. What is it they came to know? That is
the sole subject of this book. What they knew, and, more
importantly, how we can come to know what is so enriching. Some
insight to start the examined life, some insight that makes life
worth living...that allows us to peer out of the dark cave. This is
not some secret knowledge passed down through the ages. It appears
in the writing of many people who value the examined life. This
topic is not touched on in high school or university. I have never
seen it broadcast on television, nor explored in any movie. I feel
strongly that an entire book is needed to help absorb this key
topic...the key to the door of perception.
