Nepalis are mired in strange beliefs about eclipses. What’s the solution?

I saw my mom gripped with anxiety about the solar eclipse on October 25 more than before. She had been much worried about it since a week ago and had been talking about it to everyone, be it face to face or on social media or on her cell phone.

To some extent, I got irritated because of the strange beliefs about eclipses she talked about. But when I observed her minutely, I figured out how she has become a victim due to the media blitz on the beliefs about eclipses.
