คิ้วหรือปลืง วะ

[shockthebystanders]

how long did it take for the tattoo to be completed?



[FlowerClown]

@shockthebystanders about a half hour

[haodi13]

was the tour guide eye brown real...lolZ

[BeingNobody1956]

as the person above mentioned, monks are not supposed to touch money so to me this is all a farce. as to a tattoo having some "power" because it was done by a "real" monk, that is ridiculous.

[Johnjy2]

@BeingNobody1956 he was talking about the precepts I believe. Monks can have money. Money is donated to the monks and temple

[jamiethechippie]

Is it just me or does the monk lick the needle at one point...

[sueming99]

if you need good thing might wait long like that. cuz monk trying to teach you for patient. everything monk doing it's have meaning inside depend your intelligence.

[vczx1992]

can i know wat is the meaning to do thai tattoo?

[FlowerClown]

@vczx1992 it is a montra for protection

[jamesito20]

im actually getting a tattoo of a monk praying on my shoulder its gonna be sick

[agrippa9]

some people find it more comfortable getting a tattoo  in Thailand because the artist and the location are so normal and ordinary in north america people are in intimidated by the freex and run down locations so some wold would travel to far flung places to get there tats

[sicklittlepig]

i see bob has had tattoos before ( scull on his upper shoulder) i have a few tattoo gun tat's now going back to Thailand 8th trip and would like to get a monk to do a tattoo dose bob remember the pain? was it like a tattoo gun?

[Moderm101]

is there a high risk of HIV? or other things? or is the hygine good?

[watsungaisiput]

Nice vids, pretty cool. If you get a chance to visit northern malaysia make sure you visit Wat Sungai Siput, the monk there named Arjan Tia is pretty good at tattoo too, his blog at archantia[dot]info

[lumalive]

I have got one done by Ajhan Nu in Thailand. You can Google his home page.  His charges are high for foreigners. Hollywood celebrities also visit him for tattoos.

[FlowerClown]

It has no power if it wasn't done by a monk. A monk will never charge anybody for anything. They are monks and live a simple life. This tattoo has meaning one you pay for is just a tattoo.

[lumalive]

I got a tattoo something like five vertical stripes on the back of my left shoulder while my American friend got the same on his right shoulder when visited Thailand. Ajhan Noo is said to be a very famous Buddhist layman even in Hollywood. I will have to wait for the results after having the tattoo on my body.

[subongkosh]

@lumalive Ajhan nu all about bussiness now and he suck !!! he became greedy on money he also made movie... surgery his nose hes became just normal ppl with greedy now !!! also alot of show off vdo on youtube just for maketing !! he is sux

[Boondocksaint375]

Which temple did you get this done at?

[FlowerClown]

I don't know the address but most temples in Thailand have someone who can do tattoos

[funkyjfk]

I was wondering, does the tattooing Monk decide the tattoo he thinks you need or do they discuss it or it's up to the recipient? How exactly does the process work?

[FlowerClown]

Everyone gets the same one first which is for protection, after that I think it is up to the Monk.

[siLaRoo]

whats with the thai guy with the thick eye brows and mustache?

[oolbob]

@siLaRoo he is a clown and just coming from a show...

[FlowerClown]

That is Bumm the Clown. He is in many of my Thailand videos.

[cyruscheuk]

Hi all,, where is this wat , who can provide me the address??

thx

[immawontonnoodle]

well im out for #5

[FlowerClown]

I have one done in the US and this one, the Thai tattoo hurt less and this only to about 20 min. Monks don't need or take money for there work. The offering is a thank you with a total cost of about $15 u.

[exigentrevolution]

I'm very interested in doing this! I have a lot of questions.

1) How bad is the pain? I have 5 tattoos done all here in the US. Is this method remarkably more painful?

2) How long was this process?

3) What was that "offering" about?

4) How much did this cost?

[FlowerClown]

see above

[naiyana1narcisz]

Who want to get the tattoo have to have strong faith and fallow the rule of the tattoo magic. At least 5 things you have to do according to the buddhism precept are

1. Don't kill or torture any life.

2. Don't steal anything.

3. Don't rape or have sex with anyone's wife, husband or children.

4. Don't lie.

5. Don't drink alcohol.

[lumalive]

And also I have heard that you should not scold or stare at your parents, take good care of them. No. 3 is not to rape or have sex with your friend's wife or daughters. You will also have to meditate at least for 10 minutes daily.

[BeingNobody1956]

@lumalive lol. No. 3 of what?  are you trying to quote some set of rules? lol. you are kinda funny

[nunoclement]

man no gloves!!!!

[dharmathai]

[Dozz45]

[FlowerClown]

[cyruscheuk]

[FlowerClown]

[fadeaway0304]

what are the things that you should offer to them??

[FlowerClown]

No money, well just a little $2us but it was more of an offering with some flowers and smokes.

[Dozz45]

Was it done by a real monk???

[FlowerClown]

Yes, Uncle Monk has been monkin' for over 30 years.

[AngKoRiaN1]

i remember thai soilders travel from the west just 2 get khmer tattoo beggin for it

2nd it's suppose 2 remain sacred

Khmer use this tattoo as a last resort to fight back against the fuckin viet and thais

now thai acctually claim it, fuckin dumbass

giving tattoo just for money n fame, thai pathetic

[FlowerClown]

Try again with out the bad words and I will post it.

[fadeaway0304]

can u please ask the address ^_^ thank you so much!

are the monks allowed to tattoo women???

reply pls tnx ^_^

[lumalive]

Buddhist Monks are NOT allowed to touch or look at any woman with lust. but I don't know if they are making tattoos on women.

[FlowerClown]

This is true. Male Monks can not touch women in any way.

I have seen a male Monk make a tattoo on a woman's tongue but he never physically touched her.

[mrrshotshot]

From start to finish how long did the tattoo take and how painful was it? I', thinking about doing something similair in Cambodia

[FlowerClown]

It took about 20 mins total for the tattooing but the waiting for Uncle Monks to finish he work and then getting the room ready, the worship and prep work took a while. Personally I have 2 tattoos. One of a balloon flower which I had done in 95 here in the States. I think it was a bit more painful to have the color and shading done then just the poking of a long needle. I had to think long and hard about both my tattoos. If it means a lot to get one in Cambodia then go for it.

[OspiteEleate]

I wonder about safety and health concerning the needles...how were they sanitized? off course the were not for one use only...

[FlowerClown]

The jars of blue liquid was just to clean the needles, same stuff they us in the USA.

[chanthourana123]

nice
