Summary/Abstract: Slavic Pre-Christian paganisms have a pretty good mythology, strong traditions and an extensive culture founded on solid immanent conceptions about Universe and Life. Why? This is the result of thousands of years melting process of specific geographical conditions and natural phenomena with unseen regulatory influences of something Higher. Any religion that was created has the main purpose to give to the mankind some clear answers of how our World has appeared in correlation with fundamental moral precepts. This is possible through inner self-knowledge of natural philosophy and was possible also in Pre-Christian Slavic culture in spite of the fact that many notions and necessary ideas were not so developed like in Ancient Greek Civilization. The present work is trying to open some Immanence aspects of traditional Pre- Christian Slavic culture in relation with Mankind. The discussions, argues and controversies in Philosophy around the origins of the basics ideas of World View and their influences on the People’s Life during the History until our days are well known.
