Introduction Phaedo is one of the dialogues that were written by Plato, the great Greek philosopher. Plato wrote it to give an account of the conversations and proceedings that happened on the very day when the Statesmen of Athens killed Socrates, his tutor and a philosopher as well. It recounts his trial and death. The Phaedo was written in Plato’s middle period targeting philosophers, proponents of philosophy, and those who love knowledge. It presents four arguments concerning the immortality of the soul. Plato also uses it to talk about his principle of the link between soul and body, his sentiments concerning the relation, and its explanations from a technological viewpoint. With this hint about Plato’s Phaedo, the paper presents his major metaphysical, epistemological, and psychological views about Phaedo. Besides, the writer gives his/her opinions about the views based on their strengths and flaws. Plato’s major views and arguments about the Phaedo Plato argues that philosophers should be willing to die. This comes up when he tells Cebe to remind Evenus who is also a philosopher that he should be prepared to follow other philosophers through death. Plato points out that, just as other philosophers were put to death, Evenus should also follow them. However, Plato argues that the philosophers should not take away their own lives since this would annoy the gods that possess the philosophers, an argument that other people do not understand easily. For example, Cebe enquires from him the reason why philosophers who have the will to die do not commit suicide. Socrates then answers that this would make the gods angry since they are the guardians of the philosophers. Weiss confirms this by arguing that the major aim of philosophers is to practice it with the aim of dying (58). This defends the argument by Cebe that no one would want to die and leave the service of gods since they are the best masters. In fact, Plato justifies his claims about the pleasure of death though the definition of death as what separates the body from the soul. Weiss argues that Plato used the argument by Socrates that true philosophers hate the pleasures of the body, for example, drinks, sex, and food. According to Socrates, the argument reveals why a philosopher fights to free his or her body. He argues that the senses of the body are not accurate but deceptive. Plato further confirms this in the argument, “when the soul is mostly by itself, then a philosopher can search for knowledge successfully” (Weiss 62). Bodily pleasures like food, sex, and good drinks act like impediments for the philosophers in their pursuit of knowledge. Plato also confirms this in his worldview on forms. According to Weiss, Plato refers the forms as beautiful, the just itself, bigness, health, and the good (59) besides arguing that all forms are not guided by sense but by thoughts and hence the reason why they are likely to mislead the philosopher in his/her search for knowledge. The greatest impediment to a philosopher’s search for the truth is the body. Weiss also argues that the body fills a person with desires, wants, fears, illusions, and nonsense. There is no thought that comes from the body (60). This means that any true ph
