Description: SET Sak Yant Popular Book THAI Antique RARE Description Set Book 1-4 Sak Yant Thai Temple Tattoos Sak Yant Buddhist Temple Tattoos, Sacred Yantra made by Buddhist monks, Brahmin Masters and Ruesi Sages, Kata Khom, Magic Amulets Yantra tattooing, also called sak yant (Thai: ), is a form of tattooing practiced in Southeast Asian countries including Cambodia, Laos, and Thailand. The practice has also begun to grow in popularity among Chinese Buddhists in Singapore. Sak means "to tap [tattoo]", and yant is Thai for the Sanskrit word yantra. Sak yant designs are normally tattooed by wicha (magic) practitioners and Buddhist monks, traditionally with a long bamboo stick sharpened to a point (called a mai sak) or alternatively with a long metal spike (called a khem sak).History Yantra tattoos originated in India and spread to Southeast Asia along with Buddhism. From what is now Cambodia, the practice was brought into neighbouring Thailand and Laos. Chinese chronicles record that yantra tattooing in Southeast Asia dates back at least 2000 years. The script used for yantra designs varies according to cultural and geographic factors. In Cambodia and central Thailand, Khmer script is used, while in northern Thailand one sees yantra tattoos bearing Shan, Northern Thai or Tai Lu scripts, and in Laos the Lao Tham script is employed. The script spells out abbreviated syllables from Pali incantations. Different masters have added to these designs over the centuries through visions received in their meditations. Some yantra designs have been adapted from pre-Buddhist Shamanism and the belief in animal spirits that was found in the Southeast Asian sub-continent and incorporated into the Thai tradition and cultures.Meaning Yantra tattoos are believed to be magic and bestow mystical powers, protection, or good luck. In Cambodia, the tattoo is used for self-protection. Cambodians believe a yantra has magical powers that ward off evil and hardship. The tattoo is particularly popular amongst military personnel. The tattoo supposedly guarantees that the person cannot receive any physical harm as long as they observe certain rules. Yant designs are also applied to many other media, such as cloth or metal, and placed in one's house, place of worship, or vehicle as a means of protection from danger or illness, increasing wealth, or attracting lovers.
