What superstitious beliefs do you actually hear from the elders? Give (5).

Did you pay heed attention to these beliefs? Why or why not?

1. Knock on the wood or say "tabi tabi po" to pay

respect on elementals mostly in old tree or
forest areas.
2. If you see a black cat you day will be unlucky
3. Stepping over a child will impede his/her
growth.
4. Sweeping at night will make you unlucky or
"Malas"
5. The number of steps of staircases at home
should not be divisible by three.
No, I don't pay attention in these beliefs because some of
them are just impractical and has a lack of proof to be
believed. Also, superstitions can occasionally have a
calming impact by reducing people's anxiety about the
future and providing them a sense of control over their
life.
As a filipino are you xenocentric,
ethnocentric or cultural
relativistic? Explain.

I'm a Cultural Relativistic, because I want

people to live out their religious or cultural
convictions and to enjoy them without having
to worry about other people's motives.
What do you think are the best ways to administer/manage cultural differences
in the philippines?

By being open to the traditions and

values of all cultures. This means
avoiding promoting or embracing only
one culture. Think beyond race and
ethnicity. A person’s culture is shaped
by more than the color of their skin or
the way that they dress. It’s shaped by
the person’s life experiences and
traditions, which may be seen or
unseen to the naked eye.
