Abstract

The article seeks to illustrate that belief is one of the most important factors of human existence, which is mostly defined by the wishes and desires of the individual. Belief also plays a role in regulating human behavior and emotions partly through the hormonal secretion systems of human body. The need that humans have to believe in something goes back to millennia, which is reflected in the mythological stories that seek to explain the origin and the existence of the world. The mythological stories are treated not as empirical description of the objective (material) world, but phenomenological description of the human experience. The relation of the ancient myths with the Jungian concept of the archetypes has also been touched upon.
