CAVES IN MODERN LIFE

according to the allegory of cave by Plato all of us are living in the cave. the ancient allegory of the cave
and modern means of cave are almost same

. all of us are so blind to the real world, we only see and enjoy shadows of reality. incapable of reason
and logic, human can accept this illusion.

Media for example cell phones and internet act as a modern cave for human beings. Humen is deeply
immersed their own smart phones and tablets

with these artificial devices, Humen have made their own fake world regardless of pure natural and real
world. it is the same story of ancient cave but today the

cave has altered into some other forms like media. everyone today is busy at watching cell phone and
laptop screen. the screen is their cave.

They watch the screen their whole lives, and the screen is their reality. they see the inaccurate
representation of natural world in these artificial devices

the is probably the wrong way to see the reality. today every has attached to this blind chain of illusion
irrespective of reality. For example, a media user quits

to use cell phone and he is exploring the real world. surely, he would enjoy the natural world and
became more curious to explore the reality. now this person

is going back to the people to share the real experience which he has observed. the rest of people are
still attached to the blind chain watching the screen 24 hours,

they would probably don't prefer to listen his adventure or exploring experience and simply they would
ignore him.

religion is the best way of living properly and peacefully. Religion guides how to live in a society, how to
establish social relation and how to interact with

other diversified culture. religion teaches how to be successful in worldly life and life hereafter. but due
to the wrong interpretation of religion Humen can face many

challenges. Islam remains the most misunderstood religion in the history and indeed today too. wrong
interpretations of Quran and guiding principles of Islam created

socially and political instability in the society. It's not misunderstood by non-Muslims but by Muslims
too. Unluckily today, people use Islam as a tool for their

business and politics. due to unqualified Muslims scholars, teaching, Muslims are fighting within
themself. interlink between the sects on Islam are very weak

and not good. shia shuni problem still exist in our society. mosque and other Muslims prayers are mostly
targeted by bomb blast. children are widely being
brain washed in the name of Islam and then use them by terrorists and other political groups.
