    Sanskrit Tattoo Translation
    Hi everyone,

    I would like to get the two following Buddhism quotes translated to Sanskrit for my tattoo:

    Every human being is the author of his own health or disease.

    Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship.

    I have tried the site listed below but unforunately there are different variations for some words.

    Sanskrit Dictionary for Spoken Sanskrit

    Thanks!

    Hi, ariginol!

    There is at least one, maybe two members here who seem to be really good at translating those sort of things. I'm sure that one or both of them will be along eventually to address your question.

    What I would like to advise you though, is that before you go putting something that's permanent on your body, that it would be wise to get at least two opinions concerning a translation.

    I'm just looking out for your best interests here...

    Thanks!

    Thanks Clough, I apprecriate the advise. Hopefully, I can find different sources that are agreeable in the translation.
