photo from flickrAs I said in the previous post my friend George from Austria is a tattooist. This one here is mine on the inside of my upper arm. It’s the tattoo I always wanted but only had it done seven or eight years before. The pirate style design is by me. Now how do you like that!
Mum was not happy, but you know you can see it in a larger perspective: It is ‘The Mother’ of all tattoos, and a love for the Divine Mother of the Universe

“The primal stirring of pure awareness that gives rise to existence is Shakti. Pure awareness is static, transcendent, peace, unmoving, and unchanging. Shakti is dynamic energy, immanent, love, and perpetually moving and changing. Pure awareness is masculine while Shakti is feminine. Thus, it is the divine feminine that produces universes without end and all the beings that occupy them. In Taoist terminology, pure awareness would be yang while Shakti would be yin. Thus Shakti is resolve, will and energy and She is expansive. The sum total of all the energy in existence and the will to direct it is Shakti. Every God in Hinduism has his Shakti and without Her energy they have no power. The play of female energy has no beginning and no end. Although restless by nature, it cycles through periods of rest and motion.”
