Superstitions...

Around 90 percent of the people in the world will have some superstitions in one way or the other. No matter which country they belong to, which community they belong to or which age they belong to. Every one has their own superstitions in their own way. Some people have some psychological reflex actions and that becomes their superstitions.

All the core superstitions are bull shits I would say. But there are few people who are addicted to psychological actions. That action decides their mood, energy, behavior and attitude for the day. I can give an example, some people have the thought that only if some particular seat in a bus or train, they will be lucky and that particular day will be lucky. Some people do some unique repeated actions at particular time such that it motivates them to work better.

Even if the particular action makes them better in their work, it is actually not advisable. In some way, they are getting addicted to some thing. Addiction doesn't mean addiction to drug or some thing. Even if some use less, non relevant behavior fills our mind and action that is also called an addiction. We have to give proper counseling and treatment to those people. Okay, now what could be done to the people who are superstitious? We can do two things, either explain them superstition is nothing and try to get rid of that or make them sit under air conditions wearing wet inner wear.
