People of many different religious beliefs live in the multi-ethnic country of Russia. Knowing the peculiarities of different religions helps one to overcome xenophobia and form tolerance towards “strangers”. This topical objective stimulates interest in existing religious outlooks and ideologies. The author of the present book analyzed symbolic codes of shamanism, kabbala as one form of Judaism, Christianity, Islam and Buddhism. In most cases these regularities have been examined on the basis of art, which fully illustrates the essential characteristics of any religious worldview.
