The main topic of this work is metaphor. I am bringing the concepts of metaphor according to G. Lakoff ’s and M. Johnson’s book Metaphors We Live By. I am also bringing the aspects and concepts on which metaphores are builded and constructed on, discretly affecting our thinking, functioning and understanding of the world. Metaphors are divided by systematics, spatial orientation, cultural coherence and other criterias which are important for understanding metaphors. In this work it is also putted a highlight on importance of metaphor in our everyday life and also on metaphors which are ingrained (rooted) so much in the language that we do not relate to them as metaphors any more but expressions that fulfill our understanding of the world and without it our understanding would not be the same. Metaphor is closely and throughtly processed for better understanding and for the main possibility of interpretation. In second part of work, the subject of metaphorical language is elaborated on examples of religious texts Bhagavad – gita and Holy Bible, establishing the own main interpretation itself by previously explained concept of metaphor.
