Sak Yant tattoo in Forest Temple

Sak Yant tattoo in Thailand

 Make a real Sak Yant is a pretty big problem even in Thailand. There are a lot of lovers and charlatans, but there are few real Ajarns (masters). As a rule, they lived in monasticism for a certain number of years and learned how to become masters.
 To all those who want to make a real magical tattoo Sak Yant, which will cause changes in life, we advise to go to Ajarn Kob. Or to the famous Forest Temple. But of course, not to do "Sak Yant" in the tattoo parlors on Pattaya Beach. Because the real Sak Yant is a tattoo with a meaning - it is stuffed only in the temple.
As you know, Sak Yant is a tattoo with a meaning that arose over 2,000 years ago in order to protect soldiers, bring luck and success, and even prolong life. In the ancient treatises are described cases where the arrows on the battlefield did not concern those who had Sak Yant on their bodies, defended in battle.
World fame tattoo Sak Yant brought Hollywood. Millions of people know that Angelina Jolie has 5 strings Sak Yant (Hi-Tiao) on her left shoulder. This is one of the most popular and effective tattoos, which brings the owner the five most sought-after benefits of life.

 We never work with large groups, as a trip to the Forest Temple for Sak Yant is a rather individual thing. Usually the group consists from 1 to 4 people. Although of course, theoretically we can take more people. Departure is always early in the morning by car from Pattaya, you are accompanied by experienced guide.

How stuffed Sak Yant tattoo in Forest Temple

 Surely many have heard that Sak Yant stuffed with a bamboo stick. This is a traditional way, it is still being observed at festivals and in some artsy monasteries. However, even advanced Thais no longer stuff a tattoo with a bamboo stick - they use a tattoo machine. The method of applying it does not affect the magic of Sak Yant tattoo, because the most important thing is the master (Ajarn). Tattoo from Ajarn must be real, following all the rules. There are a lot of rules and they have nothing to do with a tattoo machine and generally methods of applying Sak Yant. Therefore, the application of Sak Yant using a tattoo machine is allowed.
 In the Forest Temple, Ajarn Dam (Black Master) uses a tattoo machine with disposable needles. Paint or oil, he diluted in a jar at a time.

 No, it is quite tolerable. In addition, this is a fast process thanks to the tattoo machine and even the application of big tattoos does not take as much time as many imagine.

 After you have chosen a tattoo, Ajarn calculates your date of birth, asks some questions and decides what to advise you and what not. Then our guide-interpreter will help you... Do I have to say that the Ajarn speaks only Thai and need to translate him.

 Well, and then the sketch is applied to the place where there will be a tattoo.

 After applying the Sak Yant tattoo, the master reads the prayer holding his hands on your Sak Yant and starts read the mantras, making the tattoo magical.

And there is another colorless option - a transparent tattoo. A transparent tattoo Sak Yant is considered more powerful because it is not visible to other people. The transparent Sak Yant is made with special monastic oil, which is made by hand in a monastery, often chanting it with mantras and prayers. This tattoo cannot be seen from the side and only you will know that it is. The sketch will be quickly erased, the swelling from the needle will pass and the tattoo will disappear from your body.
