I would like the official and correct symbol for it, please. I've gone to many places and they all seem to have their own interpretation of what the correct symbol is. As I plan on making a tattoo, I don't want to screw up someone's body.
An answer from someone educated in Japanese or a natural born speaker of the language would be GREAT and immensely appreciated.

The word you are looking for is "shinjitsu" (真実)



You could choose any of those two characters for "true". The actual one is 真, like in 真の友=true friend. However I'd prefer 実 whose main meaning is real/reality, but also truth.



Check out http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/真実

You can follow the links to both characteres.
