It's an Indic script used among Japan's esoteric Buddhist groups.

Might be, might be...
Also we don't even know if the original symbol is Japanese or not, so let's not stretch to fit the bill
That's pretty interesting though, I didn't know certain Buddhist groups in Japan still used scripts from the west!

You mean scripts from India. India's many writings are never ever alphabets that many people tend to misunderstand.

Hi guys, thanks for all the replies really appreciate it. I'm intrigued by your replies and the fact that it could possibly mean 'Love'.

Let me tell you a little bit about it, the person i got it from said its a 'traditional tribal symbol' and not a lot of people will tell you what it means because they quite simply won't know.

Then why did you even post a new thread about this if people don't know.

It could possibly mean love, just not in Japanese.

Why are you posting "traditional tribal symbols" in a Japanese forum?

I smell a troll here.

I normally don't cuss here, but that's complete bullshit on all accounts. You've gotta be 12 years old. "people . . . simply won't know" HAH. LAUGHABLE. It sounds like something I would have said when I was five and trying to con my friend into believing I was a karate expert.

Hmmm...It looks too weird to look like a Japanese or Chinese symbol. I think it might be a symbol someone made up. For example:



The symbol of Prince
