Title

THE SYMBOL OF HEIGHT IN RELIGIONS

Pages

  87-108

Abstract

 SYMBOL is one of the means that leads to cognition and is the most fundamental way of expressing the ideas which without SYMBOLism they cannot be revealed. Therefore, SYMBOLs fulfill a prominent function in the area of religious ideas. Religious traditions are full of MYTHs and in this sphere only the SYMBOLic language could be useful. In other words, SYMBOL is the language of the MYTH. Among the religious SYMBOLs HEIGHT is one that has played an important role from the primitive age until now. It has always been identified with a kind of value that connects human’s mind to superiority, TRANSCENDENCE and divinity. This article firstly tries to survey the concept of SYMBOL and SYMBOLism and then the function of it in the area of religion and MYTH. Finally it studies the SYMBOL of HEIGHT and its major manifestations such as SKY and MOUNTAIN.
