This rare 1940s Sak Yant monk’s tattoo kit embodies the fierce devotion and indomitable energy of Hanuman, the divine monkey warrior of the Ramayana. The central tattoo needle, carved with Hanuman’s likeness, was consecrated to channel courage, loyalty, and supernatural strength — qualities invoked in countless protective tattoos across Southeast Asia.

The complete set includes a hand-carved teak case, inscribed with yantras and protective mantras, and a palm leaf spell book filled with hand-burnt inscriptions of invocations. Together, they form a ritual ensemble once used by monks to transmit living spiritual power through sacred tattoo.
