    Sanskrit translation for my tattoo
    Hello. Could anybody help me and translate the sentence ''Everything happens for a reason'' in Sanskrit? I would like to have it as a tattoo so I need it to be as accurate as possible. Many thanks in advance :-)

    I actually found several translations of this sentence on different websites:

    सर्ववस्तूनि कारणोद्भवानि
    सर्वं कारणोद्भवमस्ति
    सर्वं सकारणं प्रवर्तते

    Which one is correct?

    Thank you

    Yes. Sure.
    Sanskrit uses Devanagari script [The Script of city of Gods]
    which is a phonetic script i.e. names are written as they are
    actually spoken and NOT as per their spelling.
    Please write to me the pronunciation for your name e.g.
    Charlotte = shar-lot and I will translate accordingly.

    "Everything happens for a reason", meaning that nothing happens by chance or by means of good luck.
    Thank you :)
