Sacred (sak) geometry (yant or yantra) tattooing refers to protective symbols embedded in the skin in Southeast Asia, particularly Thailand, Cambodia, and Laos. It is the ancient magical practice of using sacred geometry along with Buddhist, Brahminical (proto-Hindu), and animist imagery as well as magical incantations (kata or mantras), written in Khom (an ancient script used to write Pali-Sanskrit or Prakrit, which does not have a unique script).
Sacred geometry tattoos are made by Buddhist monks, brahmins, and Ruesi ascetics. Where they are made is called a Samnak Sak Yant (if a temple or a large establishment) or Dtamnak (if a smaller establishment with one master). Sak-yant.com presents a compendium of knowledge, information, and galleries about Thai Buddhist/animist temple tattoos, Saiyasart (Thai occultism), Buddha magic, kata (mantras), and sacred magic amulets.

When the Big Bang occurred, equal parts of both should have been created and immediately annihilated each other, leaving nothing leftover to build the stars, planets, or us.- Are tumors key to making zombies?
