MYTHOLOGY


ORIGIN:
          Myth is a folklore genre consisting of narratives that manipulate a crucial role in society, such as foundational tales or origin myths. Since "myth" is widely used to convey that a story is not objectively factual, the designation of a narrative as myth can be highly questionable. Many disciples of religions view their own religions' fictions as truth and so object to their portrayal as myth the way they behold the stories of further religions. As such, some scholars label all spirituals tales "myths" for practical reasons, such as to resist devaluate any one traditions because cultures interpret each other otherwise relative to one another.
             
          The main characters in myths are usually non-human, such as gods, demigods, and other supernatural  figures. Myths include human, animals, or combinations in their classification of myth. Myths are sometimes distinguished from legends in that myths deal with gods, usually have no historical basis, and are set in a world of the remote past, very different from that of the present. 


HINDUMYTHOLOGY:
                   
Hindu mythology is the body of myths and literature attributed to, and wedded by, the disciples of the Hindu religion, found in Hindu texts such as the Vedic literature, epics like Mahabharata and Ramayana.  Hindu myths are also found in widely translated popular texts such as the fables of the Panchatantra and the Hitopadeshaa, as well as in Southeast Asian text.

Alongside this prominent myth, 

the traditions enclose large numbers of smaller stories, which are usually deemed to convey an ethical or Buddhist teaching. These include the popular Jatakas, folk tales or legends believed to be past lives of Gautama Buddha.
