BAT DIEU BO The Bat Dieu Bo, meaning sequence of the 8 birds (Bat: 8,
Dieu: birds, Bo: sequence), is part of a basic VietChiDao triad devised by
the GM. (The triad is composed of Bat Dieu Bo - sequence of the 8 birds,
Hoanh Son - the form of the mountain range, and Than Ho - the form of the
guardian tiger.) STRUCTURE The Bat Dieu Bo consists of 8 birds each associated with a
direction, a virtue, a trigram. It makes use of 8 movements that take place in 8
directions and 3 dimensions: "We divide a circle into 8 sectors and assign each
one a number that we must try to remember even if their sequence changes.
Then we replace the numbers with the names of some birds. We thus construct
the figure of 8 birds." "By staying on the ground one moves only in 2
dimensions. Flying, on the other hand, one moves in 3 dimensions." (GM, stage
Caldonazzo 2014). 8 BIRDS The birds that make up the Bat Dieu are, in order of
execution of movements: Chèo Bẻo - Black Drongo - Drongo nero Chim Chích - Chickadee - Cinciarella Chim Kền - Condor - Condor Đại Bàng - Eagle - Aquila Diều Hâu - Sparrowhawk - Sparviero Hải Âu - Seabird - Gabbiano Bói Cá - Kingfisher - Martin pescatore Chim Công - Peacock – Pavone
