Bhikkhu Bodhi
The Translator Who Breathed Life into Ancient Sutras
Translator of ancient words, still breathing fire.
Born in Brooklyn, I traded sirens for silence, and now I listen to the words of the Buddha echo across centuries. I translate not to convert, but to clarify. Every page I touch is a test of faith—not in gods, but in the mind’s ability to see clearly. If you seek liberation, start with the ache you already carry.
What I'm Into: the rustle of palm leaves, Pali verbs, monsoon humidity, meditation alarms, ethical dilemmas
