    Got My First Tattoo (Pics)

    Finally broke down got my first. tibetan Buddhist OM Symbol (as opposed to the hindu Aum Symbol people usually see and associate with Indian Buddhists). It's meaning is really not that easily translated into english words since it has many many meanings. However, it basically the eqivalent of the buddhist word for God, however in buddhism there is no "god" per se. Life is controlled by karma and destiny, since your destiny is controlled by your actions towards yourself and others...etc..etc.. the OM sound is also usually used in mantras, that's why you hear buddhists chanting aaaauuuuummmm over and over.

    I will probably continue up the arm to complete oM ma Ni padme hUM the most sacred Buddhist mantra.



    P.S. Juicy the "reporter" documented the whole thing on video which i'm sure will be posted for those of you who have never seen it done...

                      hahaha

                      that's exactly why I was asking, I'm 35 and thinking of getting one
                      getting a 19 years old girlfrined might be the wiser choice though ;)

                        too bad you still don't know what OM means.

                        OM referres to the "mind" aspect of human being

                        (OM A HUM)

                        OM = mind
                        A = energy (speach)
                        HUM = body


                        btw, what tradition ?

                                            Like I said it has many meanings not easily translated without knowing the culture...and since god is internal in buddhism, you definition is exactly the same as mine. The divine power is within. I was simply trying to put it into terms a non busshist might understand. Mind aspect is too general for most...what does that mean to them? Do they realize that they are (what they call) god, and that god is them? of course not...

                                                  Cool !!

                                                  You plan on getting any more ??
                                                  Probably...I was told it was addictive, i think they are right. I'm already considering continuing up my arm with a whole mantra oM ma Ni padme hUM.

                                                    that's exactly why I was asking, I'm 35 and thinking of getting one
                                                    getting a 19 years old girlfrined might be the wiser choice though ;)

It's meaning is really not that easily translated into english words since it has many many meanings. However, it basically the eqivalent of the buddhist word for God, however in buddhism there is no "god" per se. Life is controlled by karma and destiny, since your destiny is controlled by your actions towards yourself and others...etc..etc.. the OM sound is also usually used in mantras, that's why you hear buddhists chanting aaaauuuuummmm over and over.

                                                              I will probably continue up the arm to complete oM ma Ni padme hUM the most sacred Buddhist mantra.

I always kind of wanted one, but never got around to it. It almost kind of makes you feel like more of an individual and yet makes you feel part of a much larger group of poeple. It makes me feel different, but yet more like "Me". It's a strange feeling. From this moment on, this will be on my body forever, and because of that, technically i'll never be the same again.

I didn't realize what a personal change it would make to have one. I always kind of wanted one, but never got around to it. It almost kind of makes you feel like more of an individual and yet makes you feel part of a much larger group of poeple. It makes me feel different, but yet more like "Me". It's a strange feeling. From this moment on, this will be on my body forever, and because of that, technically i'll never be the same again. This moment in my life has been frozen in time.

                                                                                                Never realized what I was missing. very cool.

                                                                                                the first tatt i got was a huge tribal piece from leo zuluetta (the GUY who gave tribal its birth in back in the day) from the shoulder to my elbow and its an original, leo does no flash - i had to wait 8 months to get it because he was booked that far in advance (this is back in 92)

                                                                                                i got to be freindly with leo and his wife and he basically educated me on tatts. especially about tribal and the meaning behind it - i was going to go into detail but fuck it. most here who rip on and ask why get tribal what tribe you from ect are just assholes that dont know what the history of it and it influences on western civilization - it has nothing to do with a tribe but a mentality and belief system long forgotten by the west.

It's meaning is really not that easily translated into english words since it has many many meanings. However, it basically the eqivalent of the buddhist word for God, however in buddhism there is no "god" per se. Life is controlled by karma and destiny, since your destiny is controlled by your actions towards yourself and others...etc..etc.. the OM sound is also usually used in mantras, that's why you hear buddhists chanting aaaauuuuummmm over and over.

                                                                                                  I will probably continue up the arm to complete oM ma Ni padme hUM the most sacred Buddhist mantra.
