Boon Tan has been a long time follower of BSWA since the 90’s when the former Ajahn Jagaro was the spiritual director. He volunteered in the BSWA committee between 2014 to 2020 at the invitation of one of the committee, firstly as Assistant Treasurer and then Treasurer. He has represented BSWA on the Buddhist Council of WA since 2014, holding the role of committee member, President and now as Treasurer. Since 2022, he has represented BSWA and BCWA at the Federation of Australian Buddhist Council, contributing as both Secretary and Treasurer. Despite those roles, you will usually see him behind a camera and he has probably aimed at you at some time!”
Please note – our Friday Night Speakers during Rains (11 July – 7 Oct 2025) are NOT live streamed, so please come along in person to enjoy the talk!
Significance of the Rains Retreat for Theravada Buddhism: During the Rains Retreat, we have guest speakers on Friday nights as our monastics stay at their monasteries and hermitages rather than coming to Dhammaloka to teach.
