If a cat cross you then don\'t continue and change the way ! Call from back or Sneezing while leaving the home considered as bad sign of the day. A broken glass of Milk is also not a good sign . Always take money from right hand. Crying dogs on streets is a sign of Evil or Death of somebody.. All these things are still exists in India and we are in 21st Century.. How can you see these things in future :

Don’t try to take advantage and propagate your Islam if someone is criticizing some bad customs in the Hindu society. Hinduism can take positive criticism and adapt itself to the changing times. BTW, what’s wrong in praying a crore gods if they are any? It’s definitely better than the Islamic ideology of killing the nonbelievers (kafirs) in their god, allah. Forget about kafirs, they stone and kill their own people. Their women are treated as slaves and blindfolded with burkhas. Beware, if anyone ever dream of converting a single Hindu to Islam, you will be skinned alive and thrown into Arabian Sea.

Friends, Superstitious beliefs and myths have been an important aspect of life in India since ages unknown - irrespective of what religion you believe in. Through education and scientific enlightment quite a majority of our population have realized that there is absolutely no objective truth behind these beliefs. However we still see these kind of beliefs and myths prevalent in some places and people in this category are those who either wants to remain ignorant or those who just practice because it has been so deeply rooted in their blood that they cannot get out of it even if they wish. The fact remains that there is no truth in these things and these are the products and teachings of - dubious religious preachers, babas, gurus, charmers, soothsayers, fortune-tellers and all types of occultists who claim that they have developed their special powers through spiritual exercises, meditations etc..etc.. who are intelligent crooks who finds ever new tricks and methods of amassing wealth and thrive by cheating the credulous population . Although the acts of these hoaxers are as criminal as those of robbers, cheats, smugglers, blackmarketers and thieves, governments are reluctant to prosecute them because their practice is sanctioned by most religions. In a democracy where the majority of people are blind believers in religions, these hoaxers can carry on their trade of cheating with impunity: The only way out is to educate, enlighten and convince the ignorant masses that there is absolutely no truth in these practices and in the claims of these hoaxers. It is indeed a very long and uncertain journey – Wish India Good Luck.

The murders and killings around hyderabad in rangareddy district,are linked to a kind of magic that people believe is the root cause of all happenings. Very few in the affected areas are willing to listen anything other than what they believe since time immemorial. Such supertitious beliefs shall continue for ages to come as long as our Television channels continue beaming shows which are no different than these real life stories. How can we solve these kind of problems thru this board ? Do you think that this forum of ours can make a difference ?
