ABOUT SPEAKER
Bhante Bodhidhaja, born in Switzerland as Nicolas Vrticka was introduced to Buddhism at an early age by a neighbour. After graduation Nicolas worked as a primary school teacher and chose social work as an alternative for compulsory military training in Switzerland.
At the age of 21, while on a visit to India in 2003 Nicolas took on a temporary ordination under the late Acharya Buddharakhita who gave him the monastic name Bodhidhaja and since kept the same name in memory of his Teacher.
From late 2006 Nicolas spent time living, practicing and serving as a lay person in different Monastic communities around the world. Upon returning to Perth BSWA in 2010 became an Anagarika followed by being a novice and higher ordination in 2012 under Ajahn Brahm.
Bhante Bodhidhaja is part of the BSWA Monastic Community.

One of the things I appreciate most about Theravada Buddhism is the profound humanity of the teachings and the teachers, who don't hesitate to share their experience with you.
Thank you Banthe for this dhammatalk. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

As the black sheep of the family I was left out of my mothers funeral arrangements. In an odd way this has helped.
