Myths from various cultures explain natural disasters as manifestations of divine intervention, moral lessons, or cosmic balance. These narratives often attribute catastrophic events, such as floods or earthquakes, to the wrath of deities in response to human actions. For example, in Hindu mythology, the goddess Durga may be invoked during crises to restore balance. Such stories serve to contextualize human experiences with nature’s unpredictability, guiding cultural perspectives on resilience and response to calamity.
