Can someone translate the phrase "Everything happens for a reason" for me? I want this as a tattoo as it has DEEP meaning for me. Thank's!

I seem to have had some reasonably good success using the following site. Sanskrit Dictionary for Spoken Sanskrit I do wish that we had a designated expert here in translating words into Sanskrit. However, every once in awhile, there are a couple of people that show up who really know their stuff about translating written names and words from other languages into the written Sanskrit. Hopefully, someone like that will come along and notice your post.

You may have to try the site above in the different ways that are available and maybe also try some things that is suggested on it in order for you to be successful.

There is also another site that you could try. It would be the following one. Free Online Translations to Sanskrit, Hindi & Marathi for Tattoos, Names & Sentences

I think that the guy that runs it is the same one that comes around here, now and then, to answer very finely concerning questions like the one that you have.

There is also another person who has recently joined who really knows his stuff. Hopefully, either of them will come along to respond to your post.

Make sure it's correct.. double check wordings from different sources before getting a tattoo...

True story... a girl wanted a tattoo in Sanskrit and got translation done by strangers online. She felt so proud of it. Several weeks later, she just found out that her tattoo reads... "cheap goods inside".

Absolutely excellent advice! I'm going to remember to mention something about that the next time that I respond to questions like this one!
