Hot Tattoo Ideas For Men - Do it Yourself Designs - Create Your Own

Are you looking for something unique, individual and super ultra cool? Tattoo designs have seen a real growth over the last ten years with the invention of new bright colorful inks, loosening social acceptance of tattoo designs, the lifestyle and many DIY tattoo designers has helped sparked this growth. So how can you go about still finding something that is at the same time super unique, individual yet ultra cool and hip? All too often men looking for tattoo design ideas fall to the overused flash at their local tattoo shop and end up getting the same, maybe cool today but soon to be out design, which hundreds of others have gotten.

I am talking about the overused tribal black line works on the shoulder, the barbed wire around the upper arm and the tribal dragon style designs. Not that anything is wrong with these inherently. They started out life as well intentioned tattoo designs that at the time were hip. However, after everyone and their brother have the same design they are no longer hip and just a old fad. Pretty soon your tattoo looks like old reruns of the Jefferson's or Gilligan's island kind of hokey and old fashioned.

Flower Tattoo Designs
Modern flower tattoo design is almost as popular as flowers themselves, but the highly detailed images depicted today are relatively new. And unlike the time honored practice of tattooing, today's intricate flower tattoo design has been around only for a hundred years or so. The reason for this lack of history is simple and easily understood. Before the creation of the tattoo machine it was impossible to duplicate the elaborate image of the flower, and the color choices were limited to only a few.

The Design Of The Tattoo 

 There are numerous tattoo designs each display a different meaning and are available in different shapes and colors. It is therefore important space for your thoughts can go in for tattooing since tattooing is a life decision and the next you are the proud owner of a tattoo design that attracts passers-by will be snapped to. There is no reason to rush when they like a life decision rather do some research, changes or modifications to any tattoo design that you find interesting to do, because they make, as I said, that every tattoo design represents different meanings, and The draft will wear you will show your expression and may have harmful effects if not chosen wisely.

One Response to Krishna Tattoo

 

Mehndi.Goddess.Dotwork

 

 

I was studying religion in graduate school. I was into the counterculture; I owned a real pea coat; my hair was, well, longish; my friends were, by and large, hippies. Most of the religion department took me for a real hippie. But my friends didn’t mistake me for one of them: I was, after all, in graduate school.

It was one of my “hippie” buddies who took me to a Hare Krishna temple, and that led, to my everlasting surprise, to my next fashion change. I joined the Hare Krishnas: I wrapped myself in a dhotī; shaved my head, leaving the tuft of hair called a śikhā on the back, and showed up one day like that at the Department of Religion.

This last transformation naturally ignited an uproar with my parents and a somewhat more sedate one with the religion department.

In fact, most of the early disciples of Prabhupāda were drawn from the sixties counterculture, a feature highlighted in the first academic book about ISKCON, Hare Krishna and the Counterculture by J. Stillson Judah. At first, mainstream society took the devotees for a kind of hippie sub-sect.

But those who joined ISKCON in those days were, in reality, double drop-outs: from mainstream society into the counterculture, from the counterculture into the Hare Krishna movement. By going further out, the devotees came back around: they took vows of “no intoxication” and “no illicit sex,” and obeyed a routine that closely resembled medieval monastic life.

Krishna devotees were definitely not hippies, yet their first social niche belonged within the counterculture. Where they were very, very “far out.”

In the counterculture, “far out” denoted a highly valued state. The possession of far-out-ness empowered one to “freak out” ordinary citizens. All the hippies I knew referred to themselves, approvingly, as “freaks.” “Hippie” was an outsider’s word, a journalist’s word.

The mission of the freak, to “blow the minds” of the straight citizens, was supposed to detonate their mental barriers and open their minds to the ecstatic perception of the surrounding world as single vast intelligent living organism, of which we are all part-and-parcel.

The devotees of Krishna recognized that world—it was the viśva-rūpa, Krishna’s “universal form”—and went beyond it, far beyond it.

At my first meeting with Krishna devotees, it was clear to me that they had won the far-out-ness competition hands down. No one blew minds like the American Hare Krishnas. I assumed initially that they knew this, and I basely suspected them of showing off. But I quickly realized that they didn’t even think or care about being far out. They thought they were normal.

I gave some time to thinking about their tonsure. On the one hand, they shaved off their long hippie hair; when shaving their heads, the men used to take the razor across the scalp twice, first with the grain and then against it, thus achieving the smoothness of a ping-pall ball. And they shaved weekly. Even my Army officer father—who waged war on long hair and personally barbered the heads of all his sons—had not been so close, so exacting.

On the other hand, the devotees left the long śikhā at the back. And in those earlier days, they wore their śikhās very long and loose: it was what remained of their former flower-child locks.

This hairstyle expressed to what seemed to me to be the mind-blowing, transcendent synthesis of Krishna consciousness: the devotees were simultaneously further right than the most reactionary conservatives, and further left than the most radical liberals. And both sides achieved integration, a single coherent whole.

This is a tonsure of “expressive concept” with “social ramifications” that Chelsea Rousso should appreciate.

Here’s an ISKCON painting, circa 1969, made for the cover of Easy Journey to Other Planets. Showing a devotee going “far out,” it records how the men wore their śikhās in the early days:
