What does the incident of mara's wife throwing the leaves into fire tell us about Indians in general?

From the Chapter :
Around a Medicinal Creeper

Dear Student,

The incident of Mara’s wife throwing the leaves into the fire reflects the ignorance of India’s native medicinal systems. It shows that even after such an unusual incident of the dead meat turning into a live animal, the woman was not interested in finding out what could have led to the miracle. It shows the casual attitude Indians have towards the medicinal plants.
