RE:Tibetan tattoos

The word for Dreams is Milam in Tibetan, a two character word I need to find out the symbol for 'Milam' in tibetian sandscript!! please sombody help me!!!! [email removed]

Sand Script? Are you sure you don't mean Sanskrit? If you do mean Sanskrit, and you think you mean Sand Script, are you sure this is something you want to put on your body? I'd research this a little...

Hello Rod.... I think you have a bit of a mix up of the term Tibetan Sanskrit !!! There is no such thing as 'Tibetan Sanskrit' other than the Tibetan phonetics of a Sanskrit word... which would make little sence to the Tibetan eye. However mantras written in Tibetan, such as the Mani mantra: Om Ma Ni Pheme Hum originate from Sanskrit, so reads with the 'sound' of Sanskrit, Phonetically. Tibetan is often mistaken for Sanskrit, especially the Uchen script style, which looks a little similar. Forms of Sanskrit are used in the Tibetan language, called Lenza and Wartu, mostly as decrative scripts used in the decoration of their temples, on beams etc, but again normally depicting Mantras and not ordinary Tibetan words such as Milam=Dream. The only person that i know of who could perhaps help, is a guy called Tashi, who is expert in Tibetan scripts, you may contact him through his website: www.inkessential.com though i know he is in great demand, so please be patient with his reply.

Dan, I'm glad you went there wth all that... I just didn't have the energy to do it. Get's back to the old thing about if you don't really understand it, don't put it on your body...

I half agree with you..... My point is not so much, as a defeatist, with the atitiude of "dont get it tattooed to your body if you dont understand it" But... "FIND OUT MORE (in this case read through www.inkessential.com and ask advice) to understand it before you get it inked to the skin" If anything this is a good leanring process, dont you think? Otherwise we will never move on and achieve anything special. Dan ;o)
