Esoteric Mystical Buddhist Sanskrit Bonji Tattoo Book 1

Esoteric (Mystical) Buddhist Sanskrit Bonji Tattoo Reference

This book is a both a detailed writing guide and pronunciation reference for Esoteric Buddhist Sanskrit characters, or Bonji, as they're called in Japanese.

Even though this is a Japanese publication, the pronunciations are also shown in ENGLISH, as well as in Katakana (phonetic Japanese).

The characters are show in a nice large size over a four corner grid so you can see exactly how to write them with perfect proportionality.  There is also a clear stroke-order guide for each character.  In Asia, writing characters with the proper stroke order is a very important element in capturing the gestalt of the scribing experience.

There is a nice fold out guide in the back with a complete listing too, as well as a guide to placing Sanskrit on ceremonial Buddhist donor posts and Ohaka (memorial) markers.
