Description
In the term "ambivalent," there is the idea of a binary opposition that does not appear in the text. On the other hand, authors could speak of a bundle of gestural, artificial elements about mysticism that is not explicitly expressed but refers to a mythological context in which shamanism is expressed. Do not forget that, according to the ancient Greeks, birds could have been considered as messengers of the gods. It is, therefore, not insignificant to dance figurative movements of the flight of a bird. In the Mongolian case, the flight of the bird is to be compared to the Garid (Hangard) of Hindu and Buddhist mythology.
