PENSAMIENTO DE PLATON

Unlike the Christian thought (which also accepts absolutely identified with God) the absolute to which Plato refers not personal. Plato believed that reality is divided into two main genres: the Sensible World (also frequently used the term "visible world") and the Intelligible World, or World of Ideas. The absolute to which he refers to is precisely this latter field of reality. Sensible World is the set of entities that are offered to the senses, particular realities, changing, multiple birth, last and die and are captured by the senses. Intelligible World or World of Ideas is populated by entities absolute, universal, independent, eternal, immutable entities that are beyond time and space, and known by the most excellent of the soul, the rational. In reality this second area is the more valuable the Idea of the Good (which for many authors Plato identifies with God).
The task of philosophy is to ascend from the World Sensible World of Ideas and contemplate this idea of property (which is why Plato defines philosophy as "an ascent to be"). This theory is fundamentally an ontological theory but has clear implications for other fields such as anthropology, epistemology, ethics and politics.
