Some think that TRP might be a Buddhist, from some ambiguous stuff in the
novels.
Perhaps it arose most strongly as Tibetan Buddhism from some
after Against the Day with the Tibetan symbol on the cover.
There is a wonderful tradition in that belief system called a Tibetan Sand
Castle.
A complex one is built, then returned back into sand. The transitoriness
of life.
I think you might consider doing your tattoo in slowly disappearing ink.
