Self-Defense

Practice Buddhist meditation in the middle of Budapest! The meditation is suitable for beginners. Each regular meditation is guided and begins with a short introduction. (all together is about 30-40 minutes) Our regular Buddhist meditations have proven popular with people who want to integrate authentic Buddhist methods into their daily lives. For the modern lay person who is juggling work, relationships, and an active role in society, we teach a meditation that is easy to learn, and profound and powerful for experienced practitioners. The meditation originates from the Karma Kagyu tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. It has a cumulative effect on mind, leading to greater clarity and calmness. Fearlessness, joy, and active compassion are the result of regular practice of Buddhist meditation. * Do I need any special clothing? No special clothing needed. * Does the attendance cost anything? No, the meditation is free.

In this session, we dive into Pranayama, (an ancient practice to discover the flow of energy within) and the power of conscious breathing, which is one of the most important aspects of the original yogic lifestyle. On these Tuesday evenings, we do more than just a breathwork session: this is an opportunity to explore a true harmony between our breath & the mind - body connection. We begin with a 15-minute chest-opening yoga sequence to gently expand our lungs and prepare for deeper breathing (no need for gym clothes though, just an open mind). Then, we explore different breathing techniques designed for self-awareness, relaxation, and energy flow. These classes are designed to help you discover how breath can be a tool to balance, energize, and center yourself. To close, we immerse in a short yet profound "silent concert", a meditative sound journey where 174 Hz sound waves or white noise guide us into a state of deep harmony. Whether emotions are light or heavy, thoughts are clear or clouded, this is a space to simply be and find some peace.

*All the presentations are in Hungarian. Thanks for your understanding!* Fél évszázad után visszatért az emberiség a Holdhoz, miután az Artemis–2 négy űrhajósa kedden hajnalban elhaladt az égitest mellett. De miért lett újra érdekes a Hold? Pacher Tibor, a Puli Space Technologies vezetője elmondja. A Hold után egy másik nagyon aktuális témáról, az inváziós fajok és kártevők által jelentett kihívásról hallhattok a HUN-REN Ökológiai Kutatóközpont kutatójától, Halassy Melindától. Részletes program: **A holdi víz nyomában avagy mit keres a Puli a Holdon?** *Pacher Tibor – Puli Space Technologies, ügyvezető igazgató* **Új fajok, új kihívások – Az inváziós fajok terjedése és kezelési lehetőségei** *Halassy Melinda – HUN-REN Ökológiai Kutatóközpont, Ökológiai és Botanikai Intézet* Mi a hasonlóság a homoki prérifű, az ázsiai tigrisszúnyog és a mosómedve között? Egyik sem őshonos a Kárpát-medencében, ám újabban gyorsan terjednek. Az inváziós fajok megjelenése ma már alapvetően formálja környezetünket, és kihívást jelent a természet, a gazdaság és az emberi egészség számára is. A folyamat teljesen nem állítható meg, hiszen a globalizáció és az emberi mobilitás folyamatosan új fajok megjelenésének kedvez. Ugyanakkor a terjedés üteme lassítható, a hatások mérsékelhetők, ami időt ad a természetnek és a társadalomnak az alkalmazkodásra. Hazai példákon keresztül bemutatjuk, hogyan zajlik az inváziós folyamat, és hol miképpen lehet még hatékonyan beavatkozni, hogy időt nyerjünk az alkalmazkodáshoz.

*“credentialism is the last acceptable prejudice. In the United States and Europe, disdain for the poorly educated is more pronounced (...) than prejudice against other disfavored groups”* **Michael J. Sandel - The Tyranny of Merit.** **(In english!)** Modern societies increasingly celebrate meritocracy — the idea that talent and effort should determine success. In principle, this seems logical: those who contribute more through their effort or abilities should secure a better life for themselves. Yet meritocracy has many critics. Some argue that it simply does not work or is broken. Others go further: even if it worked perfectly, it would still be unfair — and potentially oppressive. In *The Tyranny of Merit*, Michael J. Sandel, an american philosopher, argues that this belief system has quietly reshaped modern societies, fueling resentment, individualism, a loss of solidarity, and even contributing to the rise of radical political movements. **Introduction of guests (15 minutes)** We start with a short introduction of the guests with the question: * Have you ever achieved something difficult in your career? * How proud do you feel about it? **Questions (1 hour and 45 minutes)** 1. Do you think meritocracy actually exists? 2. Do you feel you truly deserve everything you have today? 3. Have you ever worked hard and still failed? 4. If success is deserved, does failure become deserved too? 5. Do you believe people who struggle are mostly responsible for their situation? 6. Can a society be both highly competitive and compassionate? 7. Should a CEO earn 100 times more than an employee? 8. Does a person’s market value reflect their social contribution or moral worth? 9. Does meritocracy unite or divide society? 10. Should policies aim for equality of outcomes, rather than only equality of opportunity? 11. Do you think meritocracy encourages humility or arrogance? 12. Do working-class voters feel represented by today’s progressive politicians? Why or why not? 13. What happens in a society where everyone has reached their “deserved” position? What happens to those at the bottom? 14. If you are a hardworking person, is that something you built — or something you were lucky to become? *** ### Thought Experiments * Two children: one born into wealth, one into poverty * Two worlds: one aristocratic, one meritocratic **RSVP:** Please confirm your attendance here on Meetup to save your space and if you cannot assist, yield your space to another person in the waiting list. We welcome donations from 1.000 HUF (min 400 HUF) to keep the costs of the meetup. **If you are looking to order food, or drink alcohol-free wine, you dont need to donate for the group. Thank you!**

El objetivo de este encuentro es romper el hielo, hablar de las historias que nos gusta escribir, de por qué escribimos, de los libros que nos gusta leer, de qué dificultades encontramos al enfrentarnos al folio en blanco y de qué esperamos del grupo. En definitiva, se trata de conocernos como personas para entendernos como escritores. No importa si has escrito diez novelas, cuatro cuentos o el precioso título de un poema sin versos. Aquí todo aspirante a juntaletras es bienvenido.

We are back. And yes, we're keeping the Friday tradition alive! For this event, we’re cutting through the noise. In a world where everyone is shouting for attention, being "good" isn't enough anymore, you have to be **unforgettable**. This time, we’re dissecting the art of becoming truly memorable, both on stage and on the screen. This isn’t about cheap marketing hacks or shallow virality.

In this hyper-focused session, Alex breaks down the exact anatomy of "sticky ideas" and how to weaponize them in your presentations. You’ll discover the psychological hooks that guarantee your audience leans in, pays attention, and actually acts on your core message. Walk away with an actionable framework to ensure your next pitch is unforgettable. **18:30 – 18:45: How to Build a Memorable Online Presence (by Chris Parker).** "Build it and they will come" is a lie in today's crowded digital landscape. Chris Parker-entrepreneur, Kajabi expert, and digital growth strategist-will reveal how to cut through the noise and scale a premium digital brand. He'll share his proven approach to identifying the bottlenecks holding your business back and how to deeply tune into your brand to create massive growth.

We expect the conversation to go late. **Who Is This For?** This is for freelancers, digital nomads, and founders in Budapest who want to disaster-proof their work and amplify their impact.

Join us for this free, in person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Do you want more motivation and confidence to build lasting relationships? Are you burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival, while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is held at the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

Join us for a two mile trail hike alongside the Brookside Trail at Blendon Woods Metro Park. This trail is largely gravel and does include some hills and stairs. Hopefully we will see some wildlife while hike this scenic trail! Join us!

Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life.
