The article is an attempt to determine the character of the relation between human being and transcendence in Jaspers’ philosophy of existence. Jaspers' concept of existence comes from the anthropological philosophy of Max Scheler, J. G. Herder and Nietzsche's philosophy of human being and is conditioned by the earlier ways of describing human being and it's “place in the universe”. Determining the scope of the term “creation” makes it possible to distinguish between “creation” and “auto-creation” as two aspects of human existence that are inextricably linked in a dialectical relationship. On one hand, the term "creation" can be understood as being created; on the other hand, it can be understood as determining the meaning of existence (auto-creation). It turns out that both “being created” and “auto-creation” are based upon transcendence as a source of all being and therefore cannot be treated separately but only as a part of a dialectical discourse.
