Coyate And The
Crying Song
Retold by Horald Courkabde
“Hu – hu – huuu
! hu – hu – huu ! Ho –uuu ! ho – uuu!”
Coyote – Crow
Dove
In this parable the narrator is
trying to focus on wrong process of teaching – learning system. Coyote
represents the teachers and the Dove obviously stand for the students without
knowing the psychology of the students the
teachers always force them to believe what they think. Even the crying
sound of the Dove is forcefully turned into a song. The Dove repeatedly
rejected that he was singling, coyote was forcing him that it was a song. This
incident mocks at the stupidity of the teachers.
This
parable can also be interpreted in terms of moral lessons – looking at coyote’s
behavior. We can say that over confidence is a great obstacle in a learning
process. Similarly reciting something without knowing it’s root is a great
mistake.
More
over coyote is impatient ill- tempered and easily frustrated which are the
great enemies in learning process. Besides this parable also clarifies that
practical knowledge is a superior than the bookish knowledge. When coyote
himself was hurts he know that “ Hu- hu – huuu! Was not a song but moaning
sound.
In
this way this parable gives us some better tips in learning puscert, we must
realize that teaching and learning must be in a natural environment and if
possible in a practical knowledge.
