Platonic good and evil
The conception of the good of the philosopher Plato (427-347 BC) is connected to justice and dialectic ability to succeed in any situation to be able to distinguish the good that lies behind the appearance of the reality of the senses from evil, that "can not perish because it has to be something opposite and contrary to the good "and is almost a characteristic of our mortal life and nature, but precisely for this reason we should escape from this world trying to work always for an ideal Good, even if it causes suffering. Education is one of the methods to be able to get used to the good, and then practicing with music, gymnastics, mathematics, philosophy.. without constraints by starting young, and avoiding the poetry and the arts that imitate nature and the world of appearances (futile shadows), and practicing the dialectic or maieutic that allows the formation of a stable character in the face of life's trials.
