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.
