I'm getting the Buddhist Eight Auspicious Symbols gradually tatted on me.
Of these~the Dharma Wheel, Banner of Victory, Vase of Treasure, & Protection Parasol, which should i get first?

Those of you going around this section just to tell people not to get tats--do not answer this question or your answer will be flagged! I did not come here to listen to your pathetic preaching. You want to preach, you go somewhere else.

dont get a tattoo if ur buddhist...u gotta keep ur body pure. You should meditate and upon the teaching of The Great Buddha and allow his teachings to tatto themselves in your soul which will give you much insight about existence.
but if you really want to be a materialist then maybe you should just get a tatto saying "I wish I truely understood what these mean..." and add those symbols, then you wouldn't have to worry about the order even and bring yourself some peace.
It is impossible for people to understand spirituallity and the greatest truths the world has and could ever know until people understand how to be above materialism and redefine "cool" from cosmetic boasting to actual practice of real principles.
everything is twisted, from the tags of being a rebel to being good and proper. damn the youth needs Buddha in his original form.
Basically you'd be a walking contradiction if you get these tattoos. Study. This is a positive comment by the way.

Thats a pretty personal thing, we don't know you. Out of all of them, I like the endless knot and the lotus the best, but the realy don't mean anything to me as I'm not buddhist. Good luck with what you decide.

Don't listen to the negative answers. Just go with what you think you should get. If anyone knows you best it's yourself and who cares what people think just go with which one you like. Remember it's going to be on your body and not anyone elses
