My left arm tells the story of my spiritual evolution. It starts with a lotus at my wrist represents the beginning, the blossom growing from mud (ignorance). This transitions into a clock face with the Om symbol at 3, 6, 9, and 12 o'clock. This represents both how short life is and the work that must be put in on the spiritual path, on my shoulder is the Buddha holding a lotus flower. This represents the Flower Sermon or the spiritual awakening.
