The Garden of Time in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is your tutorial area. There will be plenty of new things you will be introduced to in this area. Some of these are useful abilities to help you get around the world. In Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, your first exposure to one of these is in the Gutanbac Shrine. Here is how to complete it.
How To Complete the Gutanbac Shrine in the Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
When you arrive in the Gutanbac Shrine in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Rauru will appear and give you the Ascend ability. This move allows you to jump into the air, pass through the ceiling of whatever is above you, and pop out on the other side. It has some limits, but that is all you need to know here.
When Rauru leaves, walk forward and go under the balcony ahead of you. Press L and the camera will move in and look up. If you are in the right position, you will see a grid with a circle showing where you will jump. Press A to swim through the ceiling and come out the other side. Press A to stand up.
There will be two pillars on the wall ahead of you. Use Ascend on the short one on the left to get a chest with a Stone Axe. Ascend through the taller one on the right when ready to move forward.

A Zonai enemy will shoot at you in the next area with a bow. Take care of them and then move to the little alcove on the right. Break the crates and use Ascend to reach a chest above that gives you a Construct Bow. When done, drop down and break the cords holding the platform back with a melee weapon. Use Ascend under the platform.
Next, there is a moving platform that you need to Ascend through. Wait for it to go under the higher platform on the right and use Ascend again to reach the end of the Gutanbac Shrine in Tears of the Kingdom.
