How a tattoo may change your life ?

Thai Magic Tattoos – The Art And Influence of Sak Yant attempts to provide some understanding of the mechanisms by which a tattoo may actually change the life of the bearer. Known in Thailand as Sak Yant, these ancient tattoos are today experiencing a revival in popularity, both in their countries of origin and beyond. Fashion or social phenomenon, the demand for magical tattoos keeps rising. Hollywood stars, Singaporean businessmen, people from all walks of life flock to Thai Sak Yant masters to have these powerful designs inked onto their skin. Why these sacred tattoos provoke such passion? Who are these men who perform Sak Yant and those who get tattooed? Do these tattoos really have magical powers ?
