Myths are not only symptoms of the unconscious, but also controlled and intended statements of certain spiritual principles which remain constant throughout the source of human history as the form and nervous structure of the human psyche itself. They are telling metaphors of the destiny of humanity, humanity's hope, faith and mystery. The creation of myths starts with humanity's puzzled upward glance, a wondering, intuitive insight into the powers of nature, and understanding of the supersensory realities behind the apparent multiplicity of things in the world. Myths are recitals of sacred traditions bringing unrelated events into relationship, making differentiation and bringing order into an indeterminate world, including humanity's prescribed place in it. Myths are also the bases of transcendental worship, a mysterious intercourse between humanity and the invisible powers influencing human existence.
Myths create a sense of oneness with nature.
Ritual was man's intuitive reaction to the mysteries of life, independent of the reasons advanced afterward to justify it.
