I don’t understand this paragraph can you simplify it for me
According to Plato, the world outside the cave represents the world of forms while the shadows on the wall represent objects in the physical world. The escape of the prisoner represents philosophical enlightenment and the realization that forms are the true reality. Most people are like the prisoners in the cave. They think the shadows are reality. Philosophers, though, are like the man who escapes the cave and sees the real world. They have true knowledge.

It means, while man was in the cave, he saw just the shadows, which were distorted, and so scared him. he did not want to leave the cave. but one day, a person came into the cave, showed him that the shadows were not a real depiction of the world, and all was better

If you limit yourself to what you personally can see and touch around you, you will be stunted in your thinking. If you can work things out beyond your physical reach, then you will find realities that are far greater than your narrow world.
