No. Wear what is comfortable for you. Some people like to wear a white shirt, but that's optional and many people don't.

No. All of our events and activities are completely free.
Can I sit on a chair?
Absolutely. We also have stools and cushions. Feel free to bring your own if you like.

We are a family friendly place. While there are some activities specifically for young people, parents can decide what other events are suitable for their children. 
​What is Sinhala?
Sinhala is one of the languages spoken in Sri Lanka. A few of our programs are conducted in Sinhala. These are clearly marked.
Can I drop by any time?
Currently our monastery and meditation centre is located in a private house, so we ask that you call to make an appointment to visit outside of scheduled program times. Call us at (306) 374-2840 or send us an email at info@mahamevnawasaskatoon.com
