Sacred tradition

Okay kiddo, so you know how we have some old stories and beliefs that we follow in our family or culture? Like how you might have heard your grandparents tell you about how they used to celebrate holidays or the stories they heard from their grandparents before them?

Well, grown-ups also have their own set of stories and beliefs that they have been following for a very long time, even before our grandparents' grandparents were born. These stories and beliefs are called "sacred tradition".

But it's not just any old story, these are special stories that are really important to people. They are often about important things like how the world was created, how we should act with each other, and how we should live our lives. These stories help us understand who we are and how we should behave in the world.

And the thing about sacred traditions is that they are seen as something that should never change. They are like a treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation, and we are meant to keep them safe and respect them.

That's why sometimes people get really upset if someone tries to change a sacred tradition, or if they feel like it's being forgotten or not respected. They feel like it's a part of who they are, and they want to make sure it's not lost.

So, just like the stories your grandparents tell you are special and important, sacred tradition is a special and important set of stories and beliefs that grown-ups follow to help them understand who they are and how to behave in the world.
