sanskrit translation on early access bracelet

[beachlife]

For those with the pink early access bracelet, anyone know what the sanskrit translates to? I can scan mine if anyone who can read/translate can assist

[Snow]

I was wondering too after staring at that damn thing for 2 weeks

[Bob]

Did it look anything like this?

स्वागत गृह

[beachlife]

looks different

[Eric]

स्वागत गृह

Bob, I never would have imagined you as a Greeter.

[destin turner]

im not really sure how to section this off but the third ( : ) {second word} is indeed
maybe if everyone takes one word and figured it out this could be done fast

I'm so glad that someone asked about this. We wondered for a while too..

[justfred]

I'm pretty sure it said, "You can shove your namaste up your first chakra."

[Ugly Dougly]

I'm pretty sure it said, "You can shove your namaste up your first chakra."

I'm sure that will get you the translation you requested.

[wh..sh]

I can sort of read it but I don't seem to understand the meaning for few words. I have contacted some of my friends.
For teasers, its has words for freedom, consciousness, reflection, friendship

I'm pretty sure it said, "You can shove your namaste up your first chakra."

*facepalm* Another clueless person makes another dimwit joke.

Im gonna disagree with Wh..sh here. I think that joke is fucking hilarious

Hokay: the loose translation from the wonderful serious hindus who are my upstairs neighbors (in Rajasthan, India):

Every human (should be) independent, prosperous: confident: have their human rights: and have self respect:
Every human should have logic (powerful thought) and good thoughts, and every human should have brotherly aptitude with each other.

I'm really glad that it turned out so nicely... it could have been something that would have made them very confused about my moral programming (I did have to explain that this is not always in Sanskrit, and that the bracelet I had one year was "This guy Bob's gun camp for children")

I can see it as a joke about clueless people who adopt fragments of Hindi culture, perhaps via yoga class, and think they are enlightened and expert. And the "namaste" is very much part of the culture of this board--from all the begging posts that include a namaste. But I can see why it gets old for you.

Thank you very much! It is a very "western" joke and it might have gotten old for me.

They have no clue as to the original religious/philosophical text from which this might have been quoted?

Wh..sh?

[illy dilly]

Hell yeah! Thank you everyone for figuring this out!

We were totally wondering the same thing..... In fact we're so damned uncultured that we couldn't even figure out what language it was.

[pink]

Our bartender translated it for us the second night. Pretty cool; I thought it was to make it fiendishly difficult to duplicate. Don't know what the quote is from though, or if it is a quote.

Bob, I would really like to think that it is actually a quote from some scripture, but it doesn't look like it.
I am waiting on a friend (who is well-read in Sanskrit and Hindu scriptures) to get back to me on it.

[theCryptofishist]

I tried googling it and got quotes from Frederick Douglass and Nelson Mandela--among others--in response. So maybe it's just generically uplifting.
(Why does my spellcheck have "Candela" but not "Mandela"?)

on sunday I was convinced it said " you dumb hippies are so fucking doomed ".

simon gets into my head sometimes.

We tend to co-op and ruin. My crown chakra says Burger King on it.

If you look at that last site, you'll find a sample text which is a translation of the beginning of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Modulo a few letters that did not get their entire shape accurately reproduced, it's verbatim.

Aw, I was camped next to Naked Bob and his gun camp for children.

From JRS -

"In the spirit of Fertility 2.0, we chose this text and language because they embody themes of creation and and basic elements of human life. The text is Article 1 of The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (http://www.un.org/en/documents/udhr/index.shtml). We chose a Sanskrit translation as it is one of the oldest human languages and is a foundation for many modern languages. And hopefully this mystery encouraged a little extra Communal Effort and Participation among those who wanted to figure out the meaning. Thanks to all of you who were curious!

Kristy"

so yeah, that's a bummer...

At my camp we speculated till our eyeballs bled. I'm glad to finally know.

"All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood."

Is this another way of saying, "Don't tell me how to burn"?
