Mequon – Bhante Sila, a Buddhist monk from Sri Lanka, will lead a class in Buddhist meditation at Unitarian Church North, 13800 N. Port Washington Road, on Friday evenings. The class, titled Meditation with Bhante Sila, begins January 13, 6-8 p.m., and is open to the public.
Bhante Sila was ordained at age 16 as a Sri Lankan Theravada Monk and has been in robes for 38 years. He has translated many books on mindfulness and meditation.
