Abstract:
We have two direct ways of recognizing myths. 1) Recognition of natural forms; 2) recognition of mental forms. Human consciousness of his environment is limited to his living conditions, hence we can limit the first elements of human natural thought to areas of food resources, water, wild animals, and geographical location of human life. Human consciousness in the realm of natural intelligence that uses it, is the optimizer of these living conditions and nothing more; it means we can describe myths as we describe natural forms in natural science, it has been methods of people like D. Rosenberg and M. Eliade. But there is a "distinct thing" that grows apart from reality and that is self-sufficient, it is more dependent on the “absence of the object” and not on “the object”. and that is symbolic structures and language. Therefore, it can be found that language is formed around "numen" but doesn’t cover it and is always in progress. Language concerning consciousness with its judicial content can be expressed in A) categorical, B) conditional and C) analogical forms. Expression is to verbalize the "real thing" if there is any reality; it refers to the second way that is to deal with mental and general forms of myths; it has been the method of philosophers like C. Levy Strauss and E. Cassirer.
