ei·do·lon ( -d  l n)n. pl. Image of an ideal. |
| Plato believed that we lived in a world of images, three-dimensional shadows of the true one. What we see with our eyes is nothing more than a cheap imitation of its true state. For example, the chair we see before our eyes is nothing more than a shabby image of the true chair that exists. We carry on everyday with flawed perceptions of the true ideal form. |
