Ajahn Brahmali
Born in Norway in 1964, Ajahn Brahmali, first became interested in Buddhism in his early 20s. After completing his Masters in Engineering and Finance, he renounced and ordained as a bhikkhu with Ajahn Brahm as his preceptor in 1996. He also teaches the monastic rules (the Vinaya), the Suttas, gives Pali classes and is involved in Sutta translations working closely with Bhikkhu Bodhi.
He is one of the foremost authorities on the Sutta and travels widely conducting Retreats and Sutta Workshops in HK, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia amongst others. Living a very simple life in the tradition of the Forest monks, his teachings based on the early Buddhist Suttas are very inspiring as he shares from his own practice and in-depth study of the Teachings as taught by the Buddha and brings the Buddha to life as a Teacher we can all relate to and follow by his examples.
