How did everything begin? From the chaos-born cosmos of Greek mythology to the divine breath and golden egg of Hindu creation, from the voice of God in Genesis to the maize-born humans of the Mayan Popol Vuh, these myths offer rich, symbolic interpretations of our origins. We also examine the Sky Father and Earth Mother of the Māori, and the Navajo emergence through multiple worlds. Despite their differences, these stories share common themes: chaos transforming into order, sacred materials shaping life, and the divine establishing moral structure. Creation myths reveal not only how ancient people viewed the universe—but how they saw themselves within it.
