I want to ask is the myths and truths related to each other. "Myths are converted truths" is the statement is correct?

This depends on how you view myths. Myths become truths when a person internalizes the themes and motifs into their own life. The myth of Icarus, for example, does not need to be taken literally to find meaning. Icarus's hubris made him fly too close to the sun. We can internalize this myth, make it a truth, in our own lives by remembering not to be too proud or too impressive for our own good.
