Plato and Platonism: Theosophical Classics

By: Helena P. Blavatsky

Narrated by: Robin Haynes

Notable author and founder of the modern Theosophical movement Helena Blavatsky highlights Plato, his teachings, and his legacy in this essay. It is the Platonic philosophy, the most elaborate compend of the abstruse systems of old India that can alone afford us this middle ground. Although 22 and a quarter centuries have elapsed since the death of Plato, the great minds of the world are still occupied with his writings. He was, in the fullest sense of the word, the world's interpreter. And the greatest philosopher of the pre-Christian era mirrored faithfully in his works the spiritualism of the Vedic philosophers who lived thousands of years before himself, and its metaphysical expression.

A good introduction, not to thorough or deep

Short read it listen. Personally, and unfortunately, the listen did have what I was looking for in regards of learning of Platonism. I’m more interested in their ideas.
