Why Philippine mythology might be confusing for foreingers
Foreigners often find it challenging to grasp the dynamic nature of Filipino mythologies, given their evolution through oral traditions over time. This difficulty arises because many foreigners may be confined by their Western worldviews, which often perceive stories as static and should be "copy-pasted" without alterations.
The richness of Filipino mythologies lies in their ability to adapt and change as they are verbally transmitted across generations. Unlike the more rigid approach to storytelling in some Western cultures, Filipino myths are dynamic, allowing for variations, reinterpretations, and regional nuances. This dynamic evolution reflects the diverse cultural tapestry of the Philippines and the fluidity inherent in oral traditions.
For foreigners accustomed to a more fixed narrative structure, understanding the ever-changing nature of Filipino mythologies may pose a challenge. The emphasis on flexibility and adaptability in oral storytelling contributes to the uniqueness and vibrancy of these myths, a departure from the Western notion of narratives being set in stone.
