There is no country, no civilization where religion hasn’t left its visible and beautiful traces. It's Egyptian pyramids and sphinxes storing the former grandeur, Gothic cathedrals of Europe, Armenian monasteries and cross-stones, many kilometers of stunning Indian “images” of American deserts, dainty Chinese painting, amazing Japanese art of ikebana and the shapes of rock gardens and, finally, the significant part of world literature, music, dance, art. Plunging into sacred traditions and legends, strange rituals and customs, you can, together with the Radio Vem, penetrate the arches of the majestic temples, be in the ancient shrines of different nations and under the shadows of sacred trees, find out what religion they practice, what kind of life they live, how they perceive the world and themselves, what and how they
worship.

Not only in the woods and waters did the spirits dwell. There was a spirit dwelling in houses, domovoy, a home spirit. It was believed that domovoy lived either under the stove, or in a bast shoe hung for him on the stove. People would transport a domovoy to a new house in a pot full of coals from the old stove, saying, " Domovoy, domovoy, come with me!" Domovoy was the patron of housekeeping. If the owners were diligent, domovoy multiplied the goods, while laziness was punished by a scourge.
