Abstract
Seen from the phenomenological perspective, myth is not a primitive cultural phenomenon, but instead a permanent dimension in human culture, a meta-narrative with fundamental significance for human existence. Myth, as a meta-narrative, not only remains in the background of human existence to provide orientation, but also actively leads believers to return to their arche for authentic human existence. However, myth only occurs in the moment of human predicament, when it becomes necessary to promote the renewal of life by providing an absolute beginning.
