So the myth is not just a bedtime storytelling story or worse can make us idolaters. The problem musryik or baseball not because of the myths but how the person is addressing and interpret this myth. Some are too exaggerating myth and end up abusing it.
But in essence the myths are created for the benefit, maintaining local wisdom, environment, karmic order, and so forth. Let's see, the areas that defend myths, surely the area has not been damaged, there are still large trees, springs, water sources and pedestal. Because of local wisdom is what keeps the area is maintained, and not only that, the way of life of the community was still maintained in the local wisdom of the area. And of course people who still awake his way of life in local wisdom so he will not adventurous. The power of myth can even defeat the rules of the State, the rule of the State may be manipulated and collusion. But myths that retain local wisdom, do not.
