Bhikkhu Adicco



Bhikkhu Adicco became interested in meditation as a layman, after attending a meditation day at Gaia House. He realized that an introspective approach to life would be of benefit, and that the meditative approach laid down in Buddhism provided an ideal vehicle for this.

After attending some retreats his interest grew and whilst on summer vacation from art college, he visited Hartridge Buddhist Monastery and asked to join the community. He ordained there as an Anagārika, and after spending a year at Hartridge, he came to Amaravati in the autumn of 2005 to continue his training. On May 16th 2006 he ordained as a Samanera, taking the name Adicco, and he received full Bhikkhu ordination on 15th July 2007
