About this listen

Life, Death, and Immortality: Exploring the Eternal Journey of the Soul

Phaedo by Plato is one of the philosopher’s most important dialogues, exploring profound themes such as the nature of the soul, immortality, and the afterlife.

This edition features:

  • Plato's early years.
  • A glimpse into the renowned Academy at Athens.
  • His relationship with Socrates.
  • Plato's extensive writings.

Set on the day of Socrates’ execution, the dialogue takes place in the prison cell where Socrates, facing his imminent death by hemlock, engages in a deep philosophical conversation with his friends about the nature of life, death, and the eternal soul.

Socrates argues that the soul is immortal and cannot be destroyed by physical death. He presents several arguments for the immortality of the soul, including the idea that learning is the soul's recollection of knowledge from past lives and that the soul’s pursuit of truth transcends the body’s limitations.

In “Phaedo” Socrates teaches his friends that death is merely the separation of the soul from the body, which will allow the soul to attain its fullest form of existence. And Socrates’ final words emphasize the importance of living a virtuous life, focusing on the pursuit of wisdom and the care of the eternal soul.
