and Nagaina really where. Nag and Nagaina needed a favor from someone in the garden but no one would help them because everyone who was in the garden knew how evil they were except one person in the garden. Later that day around the evening he got a visit by Nag and Nagaina even if Chuchundra was petrified in fear he tried not to show it they asked him to do them a favor because they thought that Chuchundra did not know how evil they were but he knew.They asked him if he could help kill the people in the bungalow. Chuchundra does not want to help Nag and Nagaina kill the humans because the humans are nice to him they give him the leftover food that is in the bungalow after they eat. The next day Chuchundra was in the tall green grass and in the bushes running around, and playing but, when it got dark fog covered the ground so Chuchundra went home and in his burrow was Nag and Nagaina and they didn't look happy.
Chuchundra was petrified in fear when he saw Nag and Nagaina in his burrow. Nag was yelling with a hiss in his voice which made Chuchundra turn white as a ghost. They made a plan with Chuchundra and he had to stand there and listen to what Nag and Nagaina was going to make him do even tho he didn't want to do it. So Chuchundra was in his position but right before Nag could strike at one of the humans Chuchundra ran across the room and the human chased him around and Nag and Nagaina left without saying a word. Later that night Chuchundra returned home and he was surprised that Nag and Nagaina were not in his burrow and he fell asleep in his burrow and hoped that Nag and Nagaina would not come into his
burrow. Later in the evening Chuchundra Nag and Nagaina slither into the burrow that Chuchundra was sleeping in and tried to attack Chuchundra in his sleep but, Chuchundra heard them coming so he got out of his bed before Nagaina could strike at him. Chuchundra was running around in his burrow then Nagaina said with a hiss in her voice, “Hold still and stay still!” Chuchundra replied with anger in his voice, “NO! I am not going to stay still so you can strike at me!” After Chuchundra yelled at Nag and Nagaina they gave him an evil look and left. After what happened the other night Chuchundra had trouble sleeping that night so he stayed up late and good thing he did to because he heard Nag and Nagaina racing to his burrow. Chuchundra was frightened because he did not what was going to happen when Nag and Nagaina got to his burrow. He thought that he would have enough time to run out of his burrow but when he turned around he was face to face with angry and evil cobras. Nag was so mad it was like you were face to face with a wild fire. Chuchundra was so petrified with fear he tried to talk but nothing would come out. Nag started to talk, “Where do you think you are going?” “I am just going to check out umm… the other side of the garden.” he replied still frozen in fear. Nagaina started to say, “I don't thi…” but she got cut off by Nag saying, “Listen do you hear that?” It started to pour rain within seconds then they went out of the burrow in a flash but before Nag fully left he turned around and said, “We will come back for you and we'll make sure you don't escape.” With that said Chuchundra said to himself, “I will now stay in the shadows no matter where I go.” Then after he said that he realised that his burrow was filling up very fast so he left. As he glanced down the road as far as he could see all the other burrows were getting flooded out to.
The grandmother always would tell the grandson different stories about the land, the people, pretty much everything in the world. But one day she told him about the Deer Woman, because she thinks that he is becoming a fine hunter. She told him that his grandfather told her the story of the Deer Woman, how she would appear to lone hunter and welcome them into her lodge which would be alone lodge with warm furs and robes and a fire going.

The movie and the book both star Rikki Tikki Tavi, a valiant mongoose that hunted and killed two King Cobras. There is the family, consisting of Teddy and his mother and father. They both are referred as Teddy’s mother and Teddy’s father. There is also Nag and Nagaina, 2 king cobras which Rikki fights and kills. There is Darzee, the Tailor bird (Movie), whose wife helps Rikki destroy the eggs of the cobras. “Darzee, the tailor bird, helped him, and Chuchundra, the muskrat, who never comes out into the middle of the floor, but always creeps round by the wall, gave him advice; but Rikki-Tikki did the real fighting” (Kipling, page 143) The story describes Chuchundra as a shy muskrat, who never has spirit enough to go into the middle of the floor. Darzee, the tailor bird and his clever wife. In the film, however, Rikki is much more energetic and moving around all over the people
In the resolution, Rikki- Tikki kills Nag in the bathroom during the night, and prepares himself for the now enraged Nagaina. With the thought in his mind that Nagaina would be guarding her eggs behind the melon bed, Darzee’s wife creates a diversion, and Rikki smashes all but one egg. “Rikki had found the cobra’s nest and had crushed, all but one, of the deadly eggs” (Ross 19:04). Kipling states that, “Teddy and his mother and father were there at early breakfast, but Rikki-tikki saw that they were not eating anything. They sat stone still, and their faces were white. Nagaina was coiled up on the matting by Teddy's chair, within easy striking distance of Teddy's bare leg, and she was swaying to and fro, singing a song of triumph.” and continues with, ‘"Son of the big man that killed Nag," she hissed, "stay still. I am not ready yet. Wait a little. Keep very still, all you three! If you move, I strike, and if you do not move, I strike. Oh, foolish people, who killed my Nag!"’ (Kipling 154). Although, be that as it may, the song of triumph that the movie says is “Son of the man that killed Nag, if you move, I strike, and if you do not move, I strike! Oh, foolish people!” (Ross 19:30). So, to wrap up, both of the mediums claim that Rikki- Tikki- Tavi smashed all of the eggs except one, and that Nagaina is at the veranda, wound up and ready to kill. The song of triumph that the wicked snake sings however, is not a
In the Allegory of The Cave, Plato states that "the prison world is the world of sight, the light of the fire is the sun, and you will not misapprehend me if you interpret the journey upwards to be the ascent of the soul into the intellectual world according to my poor belief". Everything described in the Allegory of The Cave holds a double meaning as a symbol for something else; the prison world symbolizes our world and the fire casting shadows on the walls of the cave is in actuality the sun. Only the sun isn 't just the sun, it is a representation of the good and the truth in this world. When one reaches this level of enlightenment, according to Plato they not only find the truth of their existence, but they also find the good in life, and
In the translation of the dialogue from the Allegory of the Cave, readers are introduced to ideas that help them discover information about the process of enlightenment. After readers’ read the Allegory of the Cave, the readers understand Plato’s philosophical assumptions. From the dialogue, Plato confirms the idea that humans establish their own understanding of the world based on their principle senses. Plato catalogs a significant perception of how humans are able to process new ideas of enlightenment or education.
Lieutenant Jimmy Cross was being replaced as his leg had gotten blown off by a Bouncing Betty this morning. The betty was positioned three feet away from his foxhole. When Cross had crawled out, there was a huge explosion that left him injured and lying on the ground. I could hear the blast all the way from the tree while I was taking a piss. I didn’t flinch even though it that sounded like a grenade went off. Anyway, after I heard the explosion, I saw smoke emerging from the area, so walked over to the sight where I saw Cross’s upper body coming out of the foxhole. The whole platoon was around his foxhole trying to help him. As I got closer, I could see how injured he was. There was a pool of blood underneath him trickling down his foxhole.
The Morrigan’s attention was drawn to a man named Cuchulainn, because of his deeds and prowess in war. One night she came to earth. She traveled south on the road and he north. She was dress in all red and had red hair. She rode on a chariot and carried with her a long grey spear. Upon meeting on the road both chariots came to a stop. He asked her who she was and she replied the daughter of kind Buan (the eternal one). She also told him that she had fallen in love with him after hearing all he has done. Cuchulainn not recognizing the women as Morrigan, denied her his love. She then told him how she had been helping him in battle. Again not knowing who she was he replied “ I need no woman’s help in battle.” She simply stated “ if
If he would walk into a room and see people laughing he would walk up and punch whoever was laughing right in the gut. 75% of the time this was a justified course of action for nick. At the same time if there’s one thing Nack loved it was to make people laugh, he was always doodling small little comics. At lunch, on brakes at work, even in the in the bathroom. Every Friday he would set up a small table by the entrance of the school and sell his comics for 50 cents and every Friday the principal would tell him he couldn’t sell his doodles on school grounds, so he moved his stand right outside of the main building. Seth had purchased on of the comics once and found it very perplexing it was titled “ghost jokes” and below the title were three panels all of which were blank. Nack would usually sit right outside the main building, even in the snow, from seven to eight in the morning before packing
She acted like everything was well, Lakshmi was happy that she forgot everything and joined the joy of the wedding. However, they underestimated the girl, underneath her smile; laid a devil’s mind. The girl made a plan while grinding the herbs Mendhi and Haldi in the mixing bowl, she would mix poison to kill Lakshmi when they apply the herbs on her. The poison came from a leave, the leave is found on a very poisonous tree called Abrus Precatorious. While apply on Lakhmi what Vishnu’s daughter didn’t realize is the herbs that was intended for Lakshmi got switched with her father’s herbs. When Vishnu began to apply the herbs, he began to feel restless and he drops on the ground. Lakshmi puts him in her arms and says “Thank You.” He took his last breath her arms, as his spirit gets lifted above he becomes the God of love. Lakshmi couldn’t deal with the love of her life dying; she goes to the river and drowns herself. After death she becomes the Goddess of Prosperity, she reunites with Vishnu to become the power lovers who are meant to be together in Heaven and Earth. The daughter, who killed her father, becomes the devil named
The Matrix, when compared to Plato’s The Republic (“The Allegory of a Cave”), and Descartes’s Meditations on First Philosophy has numerous similarities and a few differences. It would seem that the creators of The Matrix were inspired, to an extent, by these writing of Plato and Descartes. Although each of these display it in a different way, the root of each of them is the desire of knowledge and truth rather than being deceived.
The girl took great pride in the fact that she helped her father with the chores on the farm. Her main chore was to water the foxes. Laird would help with a small watering can though he would usually spill most of his water. The girl would also help her father when he would cut the long grass around the fox pens. He would cut it and she would rake it up. He would then throw the grass on top of the pens to keep the sun off of the foxes. The entire fox pen was well thought out and well made. The foxes were fed horsemeat, which could be bought very cheap. When a farmer had a dying horse her father would pay for the horse and slaughter it. Her father was very ingenious with his fox farm and the girl was obviously impressed. She was proud to work with her father. One time while her father was talking to a salesman he said, “Like you to meet my new hired man.” That comment made her so happy, only to have the salesman reply that he thought it was only a girl.
Ancient philosophical writings have changed the modern world in many ways and in some cases still can change the way people think. The anecdote in “The Allegory of the Cave” relates to many problems that we still deal with today. The reluctance of people to turn to enlightenment and learn has not just occurred in modern times. To bring this piece of writing into the the twenty-first century the Wachowski Brothers created something more relatable, the Matrix. In the Matrix, characters experience enlightenment from a computer generated reality. Both of these pieces of work have much to do with perception of reality, but there are many other similarities and differences.
The “Allegory of the Cave” was drafted over a century ago by the philosopher Plato yet, the main themes and concepts of the story are still used in the modern film “The Matrix”. Plato’s allegory tells a tale of a group of men held in captivity and are having their minds controlled based upon a false version of reality. In comparison, the storyline of “The Matrix”, directed by Andy Wachowski, is based upon a falsified alter reality where humans are enslaved inside simulations created by machines thus controlling their minds. The “Allegory of the Cave” and “The Matrix” both question a universal truth and how one version of realism can contradict the very foundation of reality. Though Plato’s story is simpler and creates a more relative perspective
For ages, mankind has questioned the nature of the world. Philosophers seek to reveal the truths behind knowledge, existence, and the human mind. One of history’s greatest philosophers in Classical Greece was Plato. As a student a Socrates, he recorded his learnings in a Socratic dialogue, Republic. In this work, Plato shares an allegory, The Cave, which comments on the boundaries of our knowledge and our reality. A similar theme is pursued in The Matrix, in which a group of people fight a war against intelligent machines after freeing themselves from a false reality. Despite the many differences between these two works, they share a similar theme in philosophy and reality.
Allegory of the cave is based around double meanings and had major connections to now a day problems. This story is based around the theory of what you think isn’t always what it seems. In allegory of the cave the prisoners see reflections on the wall. These are just a few examples of the story.
