The spiritual and physical ill-effects of tattooing !

How are tattoos done ?

A tattoo is a permanent mark or design made on your skin with pigments inserted through pricks into the skin’s top layer. The tattoo artist uses a hand-held machine that acts like a sewing machine, with one or more needles piercing the skin repeatedly. With every puncture, the needles insert tiny ink droplets. The process is done without anesthetics and causes bleeding and pain.

Spiritual ill effects of tattoos !

Tattoo decreases the natural spiritual protection being offered to the body by the skin. They generate vibrations which are spiritually not good. These vibrations attract the negative energies. In a way the skin where tattoo is inked becomes an entry gate for the black distressing energies to enter into the body.

 

Keep away from the western perverse trend of tattooing !

The perverse western trend of inking a tattoo on the body has become common among the young Indians. Previously in Indian culture there was a custom of inscribing auspicious signs on the body parts. But, now-a-days the malpractice of tattooing has become vogue. Due to tattooing there is spread of deadly contagious diseases. Getting tattooed to look different from others and to increase one’s beauty quotient is equivalent to nurturing one’s egos.
