My Explanation About Myths

Does anyone believe in myths? They say that if a woman sits in front of the door, it is said that her match will be difficult.

Then there are also those who say that if you want to have an easy birth, you have to mop the floor, or clean the gutter, so that the birthing process goes smoothly, like that. Anyway, today I will talk about myths. Do you believe it or not? I leave it up to you.

But sometimes I believe it, sometimes I don't. Because there is this myth in my area in the village, they say that if we eat this, eat at the door, it is said that it is difficult to get full. There is also a myth that if you don't finish your food, the chicken will die. It's impossible, I don't have chickens, right? There's more, for example, later when you're pregnant, if your wife wants anything, it must be fulfilled, it must be followed, because later the child will drool.

Actually, there are many myths that were created, some myths have a purpose. There are myths in Java for nature conservation. For example, you are not allowed to cut down large trees. That was indeed created for what. The way in the past to maintain the sustainability of forests and nature was not to cut down large trees.

Or the myth that in the mountains, in the sea, you are not allowed to wear green clothes, for example. That also has a moral message so that later if it is lost, it is easy to find, for example. But there are also myths that are actually related to fantasies that are not true according to religion. This means that we should not believe in myths, so that later if someone is born on a Tuesday Kliwon, then it is not suitable to work in the water. Well, those are some of the myths that are not true. So of course there are myths that are allowed, in the sense that they are in harmony. Because they are only for moral messages or social protests to maintain cultural sustainability, please go ahead. But don't let it influence ideology and beliefs. Yes, the birth of myths begins when parents will forbid something, don't do this, don't do that. So children, or anyone. Then if the Acehnese "Hanjeut meu'en-meu'en diluwa rumoh teungoh mugreb, eunteuk icok le geunteut."

Well, that also actually has a message in Islam, because you are not allowed to sleep after Ashar. And the Acehnese even do it, there is a song, I forgot the lyrics. Among other things, because there will be idols that influence, therefore the change of time from day to night. And later there will be an imbalance of the mind. That's why many people have finished sleeping at Ashar, when they wake up to take their bags, they think it's morning, and they want to go to school, even though it is in the afternoon. Because of what, that's where time changes.

Greetings always compact.
