For Inked Friends: Another side of Buddhism ...

[Tai Do]

I absolutely loved your tattoos, Jishin. If you don't mind, I'll take inspiration from your Buddha fir my next tattoo.

Anyway, someday a Buddhist tattoo will come to remind the wearer of the Buddha's teachings on aging and impermanence ... and that 'Wheel of the Dharma' on someone's back may, with age, become more the 'Sagging Oval of the Dharma' ...

This is my fallback answer to why I would want to spend money on something that will not "last forever": "neither will I!"

The interesting thing is, I get the other side too: "how can you make a decision on what tattoo to get? It's on there permanently!"

I have a couple of them also, but I definitively would remove too.

I have a biodiversity tattoo and no regrets.. It’s just ink. When I go to the gym to weight lift I notice two things 1) I am usually the oldest guy by 30 or 40 years (I serve as an example not to give up ) and 2) I have the least number of tattoos

It comes and goes. it’s all impermanent

My tattoo is definitely more going than coming. Then again it is 40 years old.

Instead of tattoos, I am going to get hearing aids. I hope they help you with what happened with my brain surgery and I have been told they will help some.

Sure. I rarely understand anything that you say. I am not a poet and you like to communicate in ways that I do not understand.

Sorry, I am wondering too I spoke to Onkai and Shokai today, and they are fine and do not report any event.

When do you get yours?
Actually, Very simple sketch; probably only charge you the set cost

And, If I forget my rakusu I always have the virtual one.
