[lbo-talk] Cave shadows

[Charles Brown]

After the Buddha died, people still kept pointing to his shadow in a
cave for centuries—an  enormous, dreadful shadow. God is dead: but the
way people are, there may be, for millennia, caves in which his shadow
is still pointed to. — And we — we must still overcome his shadow! 
—Friedrich Nietzsche

CB: Would these be Plato's caves ? We must still overcome the caves and
shadows of idealist philosophers ,too.
