Do you believe in superstitions? Why, or why not? Working with your partner, write down three superstitious beliefs that you are familiar with.
No, I don’t believe in superstitions. They misguide the people. Every good or bad can happen in the conscience of the bearer. In India every 6th person may believe in such orthodox myths.
Some familiar superstitions are
(i) Don’t step out of the house, if any one sneezes or calls from your back.
(ii) You must stop and change your chappals if a black cat crosses or cuts your way.
(iii) If you see a corpse in the morning while going out of the house, there is some good news for you.
(iv) If a crow caws on the parapet of your house, someone is coming to your house.
(v) If a man’s right eye is flickering, some good news is awaiting.
