Superstitions keep a mind in the dark, away from the light of wisdom. They are a most powerful magnet that pulls one in the direction of their beliefs. These beliefs can be very controlling and have great influence. They cause people to do foolish things. They create fear. One should be free of superstitions as the Tao has no superstitions, no fear, no beliefs. It is just the pure and natural way. We cannot live freely if we are held in bondage by superstitions and false beliefs. It is important to use the light of Tao, and free the mind from fear.
