    Personaly speaking NONE!
    Every culture has more or less superstitious elements and beliefs in it.
    So, here are the ones I have heard so far:
    • It is believed not to wear clothes of black colour to the events of joy and celebration like weddings and religious events.
    This is because people think that black is the colour with negative vibes that can spoil the vibe of the joyous event.
    • Women are not allowed to visit temples(a building devoted to the worship of a god or gods) or any other place of religious importance when they are on their periods.
    Women are believed to be unpure during the periods and are restricted from entering the kitchen too.
    • While someone is stepping out of the house they should not be offered food.
    It is believed that by doing so the work they are supposed to do will not go well.
    • Elder tells the rest to not say words like “Come” and “let’s go” at crossroads and at some unexplored or virgin places as that might attract the wandering souls to come with you.
    • Women are expected to fast for the long and healthy life of their husbands and if they break that fast then their husband would die.
    And there are many such beliefs that have no logical or scientific explanation and yet they have prevailed for centuries.

    I made a habit of not believing in anything unless there’s an abundance of evidence backing it up, but I believe cats are planning to overthrow humans and rule the world

Culture

Most religions teach us about the existence of a sovereign God - the creator of everything. Some religions teach us the way of life and the practical ways to handle life and people alike. The culture of a certain place can also be based in the set of beliefs and practices set by its religion. The early civilisations show us that people wondered about creation so they created images and worship them. Religion is placed in the hearts of men but the paradigm shift in culture has melted the faith in human's heart. You can name all religions you know while not being a follower of any devotion and it is still culturally acceptable.
