Superstition is a queer concept. It forms in a certain condition
in human mind. Unreasonable fear of different elements and rigid faith in
witchcraft, ghosts and various evil forces are called superstition. It
dominates and paralyses the power of reasoning and rationality of man. No
rational explanation is possible for it. Superstition comes mainly out of
ignorance. Orthodoxy and conservatism are responsible for it. The hooting of an
owl, the sound of a cricket, the groaning of dogs. an untimely sneezing of a
cow or a man. etc. make superstitious people panicky. The effects of
superstition are terrible. A superstitious person suffers physically and
mentally without any reason. He cannot prosper in life. In fact. superstition
Is harmful to human civilization. But this is an age of science. Science has
taught man to think rationally. So. man should give up superstitions and
cherish reasonable ideas in this age of modern civilization.
