Invisible Tattoo - Wat Bang Phra

Wat Bang Phra 2007. Perhaps this is one of the things that best explains the differences between Western and Eastern cultures, the invisible Sak Yant tattoo. Instead of regular ink, colorless oil is used to convey the powers of the magical temple tattoo. As the main purpose of Sak Yant Tattoos are to transfer magical powers to the owner, there is no need for the tattoo to be visible to others. The colorless oil is often a complicated holy mix of oils taken from the most revered animals such as the tiger, elephant and cobra.
