The world-famous leaders feel proud to take photos here. It is the Parthenon of Athens. Thousands of years ago here was a statue of goddess of intelligence and power named Athena. In front of this Parthenon the whole city was settled. At another altitude from where the Parthenon and statue of Athena looked clearly a stone carver lived.

The son of stone carver often looked at the statue and think. How a statue can protect the whole city. He has many other such questions but only questions with no answers. And these questions took him to the cup of poison.

This person was Socrates. The great man who was martyred over truthfulness.
When Socrates was a boy, he often looked at his father who carved stones until changed it into a beautiful lion shape. He was surprised that how a stone can shape a lion. One day Socrates asked his father how you convert the stone into a such beautiful lion.

His father was busy, he tried to ignore and said that you are a child. I will teach you all when you will get mature. But he cannot wait for the answer and told his father that let him know right now. Socrates father spoke that consider there is a lion imprisoned in the stone and you have to make the lion free. How clear you will see the lion in the stone the better you can create the shape. Socrates impressed by the answer.
His father was a stone carver but her mother was a midwife. One day he asked her mother how did she do her work. Mother replied that she just helps women to free the imprisoned child.

Socrates understood something and some not. But he often thinks. What he had learned from answers of his father and mother was that the things are actually concealed and it depends upon us to expose it and we can do otherwise it will always remain hidden.
At night Socrates listen stories of gods and goddess from her mother. He was addicted of asking questions. So, he also asked question over gods and goddess but her mother make him quiet and says gods don’t like questions.
But Socrates was a statue of questions. His tension was that if gods and goddesses are grateful then why like humans, they hate peoples why they get angry and why they suffer humans. He always thinks but he did not get the answer. He wants to ask but at that moment such queries were to invite a great trouble. Continued………………..
