Apa Arti Tato Baru The Rock?

KOMPAS.com - Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson dikenal getol membentuk otot tubuhnya dan menyukai tato. namun dari semua tatonya, ada satu yang lebih menonjol dibanding yang lain, yakni gambar tengkorak banteng yang menutupi lengan kanannya.

Menurut mantan pegulat yang kini menjadi aktor itu, tato di tangannya punya arti khusus. Ia menjelaskannya dalam video instagram yang diunggahnya.

"Setelah menjalani 4 sesi tato dengan waktu total sekitar 30 jam bersama sahabat dan artis ikonik @nikkohurtado, cerita tentang tengkorak ini akhirnya selesai," tulis The Rock.

 

After approximately 30 hours of tattooing (4 sessions) with my good bud and iconic artist @nikkohurtado, the story of my skull is complete. Flow of positive energy is constant thru the breathe of life. Horns always positioned forward. Not up, but forward - representing forward progress and always at the ready to dig in and dig deep. Eye is the mana - the spirit and the power. It’s everything. It’s where I draw my strength from all things I love and protect. As with my Polynesian tattoo on the left side of body, the symbolic mana lays over my heart. We all have mana. Our strength. You just have to find it. #BullDNA #Energy #Progress #Mana

"Ini adalah aliran energi positif yang mengalir terus menerus lewat nafas kehidupan. Tanduk selalu menghadap ke depan. Tidak ke atas, tapi ke depan, menggambarkan kemajuan dan selalu siap bekerja dan berusaha lebih keras. Mata ke arah "mana" jiwa dan kekuatan. Dari situlah saya menarik kekuatan dari semua hal yang saya cintai dan lindungi."

"Sedangkan tato gaya Polynesia di sisi kiri tubuh saya, simbol "mana" itu berada di jantungku. Kita semua memiliki "mana", kekuatan kita. Kita hanya perlu menemukannya."

 

Evolution of the bull. Blood, sweat & years. After 3 sessions and 22hrs of tattooing with world renowned @NikkoHurtado, the story's almost done.. Every detail is a reflection of my own personal history. From the cracks and heavy damage in the bone representing life's hard lessons I've learned over the years. Just like scars and wrinkles - I'm so grateful to have 'em because they're earned. To the horns, not pointing up or out to the side, but pointing straight ahead representing relentless energy and forward progress. The core and anchor of this image is in the eye. Look closely and you'll find the life, energy, power and you'll feel the MANA (spirit). The eye tells the story of a disruptive positive energy always ready to dent the universe. Depending on the light and angle, sometimes the energy's subtle and sometimes it's glaring. But it's always alive and ready to disrupt the universe and love and protect my family and all things I love with intense passion and gratitude. Cheers to living, learning, evolving and growing. And to the positive disrupters ready to dent the universe. #EvolutionOfTheBull #TheDisrupter #TheMana #NowLetsBreakOutTheTequila

The Rock memperlihatkan tato itu pertama kali beberapa bulan lalu, meski belum selesai. Ini adalah transformasi dari tato sebelumnya yang berupa kepala banteng. Banteng itu menjadi simbol tak resmi yang dipakai The Rock, dan muncul di produk-produk Under Armour yang menggunakan The Rock sebagai dutanya.
