Tattoos on Buddhists (& non-Buddhists alike)

my tat freshly done, by civvicwork

Why a Buddhist-inspired tat?
I chose this because of the meaning behind the mantra. Also to have a daily reminder of what I aspire for. I seek more of these qualities in my life on a daily basis.

Are you practicing Buddhist?
No I am not and yes I am. I do not follow or practice any 'religions' or 'beliefs'. Yet if one were to observe me at times, they would say I would fall into that category. Just as we are all divinely unique, I cannot fathom that there is one way, just one love.

Do you sit?
If this is in reference to meditation, then yes. Otherwise, my answer would be that I sit often. Sometimes I sit when I am working at my desk and other I sit times when I read. I also sit when I don't want to stand.

Have others commented on your skin art?
It seems that many people will come out of that bubble to ask me about the mantra. I find this quite enjoyable as I love the company of other people and the chance to share conversation.
