Psychologically speaking, it refers to the state of people's awe and obedience to the gods who think that life individuals (or life groups) have dominant power in their hearts. It is a belief and behavior that people pray for improving their destiny when they encounter things they cannot know, or when they encounter insurmountable setbacks and obstacles.

For example, when people encounter difficulties, they often ask God for divination, fortune-telling, drawing lots, measuring words, reading faces and descending to the gods in order to get rid of them. Superstition is a morbid social psychology, which still has a market in today's society. This is an anti-scientific stupid mentality and behavior, which must be stopped.

1 is an idea and an act, that is, believing in ghosts and gods, burning incense and worshiping Buddha, and telling fortune.

There are obvious differences between superstition and religion. Superstition and religion look very similar on the surface, both of which contain the recognition and obedience to the supernatural, but the difference between them is obvious. Structurally, religion is a social ideology with strict organization, canon, doctrine and system.

Religion is developed through the professional communication of clergy and has a theological system. Religion has legal status. On the other hand, superstition is the antithesis of religion. Superstition is not spread through formal organizations recognized by theology. Superstition is closely intertwined with people's daily life, and it is passed down from bottom to top in traditional customs, such as chanting spells, exorcising ghosts and treating diseases, and predicting good or bad luck with divination.
