Hi Dani Dan! So to answer your question I'll say that I got inspired by Tashi Mannox and browsed his website a lot while searching for the 'perfect mani mantra tattoo' but finally found the One on google. Tashi's art is special and dear to my heart and I might contact him for the next tattoo ^^ How many have you got so far?! It's my only tattoo but would like to get the 'mani mantra' all over my body cuz it's perfection :)
hey dan:) the tattoo was made by angel from spain it's a very cool dude i meet at transilvania tattoo convention. tha tattoo on my hamd is a prayer. have a nice day. Alex
Thank you so much! There is still one more session to go on it. It will be finished next Friday! I love Tashis' work so much! That is definitely something that I am going to do, I want to get the words compassion and suffering, so I want to have him to do that and then Iwill take it to the artist who did my Dharma Wheel.
I will surely check that artist out. I appreciate it. Even some guidance is great. On the sanskrit symbols, I have to be COMPLETELY honest. Not a clue. I know that is pretty dumb on my part. I think it was a "nice touch" the artist wanted to add and I took on face value what I was told it meant, but then looking it up later (since it's on my back I don't think of it all the time because I can't see it), I couldn't find the meaning. The main motivation for me was the eternal/endless knot. I do believe for myself and others it's important to be interdependent with all seen/unseen, named/unamed, remembered/forgotten. Maybe in building out this piece I can change those sanksrit symbols to something I do know. Namaste.
Thanks so much for the link you sent. I was already looking at having some work done by xed, but having looked at the work by tashi I now know where to persue my works.
I didn't start getting tattoos till I was 44 years old so I've spent the majority of my life un-inked. I never felt discriminated against by people with tattoos. I've found tattooed people fascinating since I was in my early twenties, back then the…
