I like that you have been so much into this dialogue! Seems to me that love is both rational and irrational, a guide for the noble (and subsequently right) life. Is it morally important only among persons, or also among citizens? Does Plato touch upon that?
lover = Creator bestows upon Creation = beloved. Sole purpose of a creation is to receive eternal love of a Creator. By fulfilling its purpose, Creation brings eternal pleasure to its Creator and thus becoming a lover as well. Therefore lover is the originator therefore the higher level but beloved has an opportunity to ascend by excepting love and become ONE and together they are cold LOVERS! I hope that makes sense. like your videos very much, Thanks for posting!
Excellent explanation. Good job sir! I appreciate it.

+Georgios Moukazis He -- or rather the interlocutors in the dialogue -- do touch on some of those topics.
i think in terms of religion whether God is the lover or the beloved.
Typically both

Well, all that is interesting, but it's not what Plato is having Phaedrus talk about here
I noticed, he poised the question but didn't get to the bottom of it...😁
