The Buddha vs. Plato: Reality and Illusion – From the Cave to Nirvana

What is real, and what is illusion? In this cinematic journey across time and wisdom, we compare two of the greatest minds in history: Siddhartha Gautama (the Buddha) and Plato. One left behind a palace to seek the end of suffering; the other left behind convention to seek the light of truth.

We begin with Plato’s Allegory of the Cave — where prisoners mistake shadows for reality — and contrast it with the Buddha’s awakening under the Bodhi tree, where he saw through impermanence and craving. From “Forms” to “Nirvana,” from the immortal psyche to the doctrine of anattā, this deep dive explores how both traditions uncover the illusions that bind us.
