Wisdom in Fairy Tales and Teachings

The fairy tales of Rerich are unusual in content and structure.
Addressing Russian epics, Scandinavian sagas, Finnish runes, Eastern legends, and various religious and ethical teachings, Rerich primarily sought to reveal indisputable facts for him about the unity of the spiritual roots of humanity, starting from ancient times.
The most important thing is that the heroes of these fairy tales are bearers of elevated feelings and thoughts and embody eternal universal values. Thus, the works acquire a distinctly philosophical and moral orientation.
