Profile:

Bro. Ghatikara Loo, a native of Kuala Lumpur, began his journey with the Dhamma while studying in Singapore where he was first exposed to Buddhist teachings. His passion for the Dhamma flourished upon his return to Malaysia, where he was guided by Ven. Suvanno and Ven. Dhammavuddho. His focus later gravitated towards Early Buddhism and the Pali Canon after meeting Ayasma Aggacitta and Ayasma Ariyadhammika, who encouraged him to study the suttas directly. Beyond his personal enjoyment of reading the suttas and Dhamma books, he is deeply committed to supporting the bhikkhu Sangha and the Buddha Sasana to ensure the preservation and longevity of the true Dhamma.
