🔸 สักยันต์: Sak in Thai means Tattoo, and Yant is the Thai pronunciation of the Sanskrit word Yantra – a mystical diagram used in meditation. Yantra is common in the “Dharmic religions”, such as Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism. The practice of Sak Yant originated over 2,000 years ago amongst the Tai tribes of Southwestern China and northwest Vietnam.
It consists of sacred geometrical, animal, or deity designs, which are accompanied by Pali phrases that offer the bearer of the tattoo magical benefits, such as:
🌞Power 🌞Protection 🌞Fortune 🌞Charisma
A traditional Sak Yant consists of three different components:
🌞The Yantra
