Beyond Logic- Platonic True Knowledge of Forms: A comparative review of cross-cultural parallel methodologies

This paper is an short  undergraduate exploration into the 3 ways Plato claimed one could achieve understanding of Noesis, or true-form. Today, the only path seemingly accepted by the intelligentsia is the dialectic. The other two: recollection and love, or agape', seem to be sidelined for reasons founded in current scientific and political dogma.  Interestingly, these same three paths are very nearly identical to those found in many East-Indian philosophical concepts and methodologies; so much so, that they seem to verify the authenticity and veracity of each other.
