Eating Curd Before Doing Something Auspicious
It
is
just
not
in
movies
that
you
would
see
a
mother
running
behind
her
kid
and
feeding
him
a
spoon
of
curd
mixed
with
sugar!
Well,
this
is
the
most
common
superstition
that
Indians
follow!
How
did
it
even
come
into
practice?
Well,
this
age
old
practice
has
been
explained
in
the
Vedic
scriptures
with
a
rather
convincing
logic.
It
is
revealed
that
when
you
are
tensed,
it
can
take
a
toll
on
your
stomach
too.
Since,
yogurt
is
a
probiotic,
it
has
a
cooling
effect
while
a
little
bit
of
sweetness
has
always
known
to
be
soothing.
Superstitions That People Follow Around The World
Hanging Lemons And 7 Green Chilies Outside Shops
When you buy a new car or start a new shop, you would often see the elders in the family doing this trick. You would see them tie the lemons and add green chillies at the rare or the front part of the vehicle.
But how did it even come into practice?
It is believed that the sour and pungent foods would keep the evil energies away and prevent them from entering your space. Well, we don't know how true that is but this belief may help you to keep the pests away!
The Twin Yolk!
How lucky we feel when we get two yolks in a single egg! But hey, hold on, it also has its share of superstition! It is believed that when you break an egg and find two yolks instead of one, then there are chances of having twins or a wedding happening in the family.
But how did it even start?
We got no clue on how this belief started, but it still excites on getting the extra yolk!
Using Ghee In Diyaa!
We bet, burning diyaas with ghee is a costly affair! But ghee is considered to be a sacred ingredient among the Hindus.
All about the belief!
It is believed that instead of oils, if one lights diyas with ghee, it can bring in positive energies, and keep the evil energies away.
Spilling Of Salt!
There are many beliefs regarding salt. The most common superstition associated with salt is about the spilling of salt. People believe that spilling salt brings bad luck. Another belief about salt is that the salt should be dissolved in water before discarding instead of throwing it directly.
How the belief started?
It is believed that salt kept in a bowl is said to absorb negative energies. (The research to prove this belief is still on!!)
Belief Of Menstruation Myths That Needs To Be Broken Right Away!
Borrowing Milk After Sunset
Just the way people believe about spilling of salt, the same logic of spilling milk is considered! Spilling of milk is also not considered a good omen. It is considered to be inauspicious when people lend milk after the sun sets!
All about the belief!
According to the belief, the pastoral and farming community believe that it reduces the milk produced by the cattle. Hence, they never believe in lending milk after sunset!!
