| − | Some of the ideas based on the story of the Bean about indigenous knowledge emphasizes the importance of indigenous learning compared to other forms of learning like traditional and western knowledge.

Really these reminded me of a story my grandfather used to tell us during our early ages. Our grandfather used to predict the rains by looking at stars. Saying as if certain kinds of stars appear on a certain side of the sky, we will receive rain together winds by telling us together around him by looking at the sky and so on…
