The traditional tattoo in Thailand is called “Sak Yant” which is described as Thai Sacred Geometry (Yant/Yantra) tattooed in the skin. Known as an Ancient magical practice of Sacred Geometry, using Buddhist, Brahman and Animist imagery and magical incantations (Kata), written in Khom (Ancient script used to write Pali Sanskrit). You can get a Sak Yant in Koh Samui.
Sak Yant Temple Tattoos, are made by Buddhist Monks, Brahman Masters and Ruesi ascetics. A place where Sak Yant is made is called a Samnak Sak Yant (if a temple or a very large establishment), or “Dtamnak” (if a smaller establishment with one Master).
Robert from Sweden is finishing his second season training at Samui Fight House and he wanted to make his time in Thailand unforgettable, so he decided to visit the Ajarn Phantep at Samui Sak Yant for his first tattoo ever.
After a beautiful ceremony that lasted more than 2 hours he finally got prepared for embrace the pain of the magical Sak Yant, Ajarn started with an oil tatto in his left leg and finished with two Sak Yants, one on the back of his heart and the other one in the middle of the upper back.
