Another great tattoo for God devotees…with a message “I belong to the god and it bless me”…there is also something written in some other language…don’t know whatever it is…but the ink used looks great..and of course the nude bat woman is best part of the tattoo.
“I got this tattoo on March 22nd from Sage, at Sage-Ink. We met through a spiritual community to which we both belong, though I do not entirely commit myself to being one of the ?Radical Faeries? (a part of the group).
This tattoo is of the god Ganesha, who is one of the Hindi deities. In the broadest of terms, Ganesha represents overcoming obstacles. This deity has been very meaningful for me in the last period of time. One reason I am interested in Ganesha, is that he is often portrayed as partially feminine and partially masculine. In my life, I am seeking a balance with respect to gender.
For a long time, I lived exclusively with men, and then I lived exclusively with women. I feel as if I am finally finding a balance in my living situation with a mix of people who concentrated less on the specificities of gender and have more interest in their personhood.
Another issue that this tattoo addresses is that I have had a very hard time in my life with commitment. Commitment to friends, work, relationships? I see getting a tattoo as a very concrete way of making a commitment. This is an image that I will have forever. I chose white because I like that organic feel of black and white and brown images on the skin. I also feel as if it gives the image subtly, however permanent the image may be. I am overcoming my obstacles.”
Having Gayatri Mantra as tattoo on the forearm is really gr8 especially for spiritual people..for those who don’t know about gayatri mantra..It is the foremost mantra in hinduism and hindu beliefs, inspires wisdom.

I loved this tattoo of Gaurav Negi so much that couldn’t resist myself from posting it here…
This guy has got both his arms tattooed. On his right arm is Lord Krishna, beautifully themed and color combination is great. I am not sure of which lord pic on crafted on his left arm.. If anyone has any idea then do share by commenting.
Nice religious work on the back with a cross, gods hand and a message.
Here is another religious tattoo of Jesus written in calligraphic stylye on the stomach around the navels.
Reproduced With Permission From Steve Self in Williamsburg, Ohio. This was Steve’s first tattoo. It’s on his right forearm. He says he chose this area because he wants to show he is NOT ashamed of having Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. He says the cross piercing his skin is symbolic of what Jesus went through at his death. The tat was inked by Big Tom from Big Tom’s Uptown Tattoo
in Cincinnati, Ohio.
