All superstitions are baseless and foolish. They are the inventions of idle and silly people. They have come to stay permanently in our homes. Whatever be the occasion, the role of disbelief is there. Our belief in luck and magic is too strong. None can waver it. None can make us shed our wrong religious opinions. We Indians are highly superstitious.
When we go out of our house in the morning, a sweeper or ra broom must meet our eyes. Since this meeting is considered to be extremely auspicious. If a cat crosses our path or a woman with an empty pitcher or pail in her hands meets us, we feel greatly upset. Our mood and day both are spoiled. We feel puzzled. Its is excessively inauspicious as per Indian superstitious.
If we wear an iron bangle in our right hand, we will not feel afraid or scared (frightened). Even in our sleep we will enjoy peaceful dreams. There will be no disturbance.If a student eats curd or pudding while going to the examination centre, his paper will be easy and his success in the examination will be a sure shot. It is all an idea of a silly mind.No one can reason out. If we try to bring round to our scientific view, the people will give a hearty laugh making us an ass. We will have to cut a sorry figure. In our heart of hearts we know that we are cent-per-cent correct, but we lack the courage to stick to our guns.
People say that we are superstitious because we are illiterate and backward. But what will you say when a double Science Postgraduate falls an easy prey to the trap of disbelief. When he affirms his faith in witchcraft, when he is devoted of black magic. There and then people invent stories justifying their stand. The tale of our superstitious is quite sickening. It is very dismal. All of us, both educated and uneducated, feel helpless before the power of superstitious.
