En esta conferencia exploraremos el patrón común que comparten ocho vías distintas de trascendencia, comprendiendo cómo cada una de ellas puede ampliar nuestra percepción, transformar nuestra conciencia y abrir acceso a estados de mayor claridad, lucidez y conexión. Una invitación a descubrir qué significa realmente “pensar con el cerebro completo” y recuperar una forma más profunda, integrada y consciente de experimentar la realidad, más allá de las palabras. **Ponente**: Salva López, músico experto en crecimiento personal a través de la música, es conferenciante internacional y ha publicado tres libros. web: [www.salvarock.es](www.salvarock.es) IG: [instagram salvarock.es](https://www.instagram.com/salvarock.es) **Aportación**: 5€ (costes de sala y organización).

Hola a todos!! De nuevo una interesantísima conferencia para conocerse mejor y caminar por la vida con seguridad y confianza. La astrología considera que la humanidad no sólo está influenciada por los factores hereditarios y por el medio ambiente, sino también por el estado de nuestro sistema solar en el momento del nacimiento. Los planetas se consideran las fuerzas básicas de la vida, las herramientas que utilizamos para vivir, así como la base de nuestra misma sustancia. Estas fuerzas planetarias toman distintas formas, dependiendo de su ubicación en el zodíaco y de la manera en que se relacionan entre ellas. Los aspectos que se forman entre los planetas describen estas relaciones; la posición de los planetas en relación con el lugar de nacimiento nos habla de su expresión en las esferas de la vida descriptas por las casas astrológicas. Interpretando el rol de estos actores (los planetas) y sus cualidades (los elementos, signos y casas) y creando una síntesis, la astrología puede presentar un cuadro completo y comprensivo de la persona y su potencial, basado en el horóscopo natal. Ponente: José Antonio Ayuso, Ingeniero Químico e Investigador del conocimiento para el crecimiento y desarrollo del ser humano. Sábado 13 de junio a las 19h. Restaurant Nova Galicia, C/ Calabria 224 Metro L-5 Entenza. OS ESPERAMOS!!

PARK LOCATION: WE WILL BE SEATED EXACTLY TO THE LEFT OF THE PARLAMENT BUILDING ON THE GRASSY LAWN. Here you can see the exact spot on map: [Link to location](https://maps.app.goo.gl/KnWdQCe9W8ANupwt5) Do you have a hunger for a deeper understanding of yourself and the world around you? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue? If yes, then you will enjoy this event. We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts. The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives. Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others. A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning. WHAT TOPICS ARE DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP? Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view. Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups: What ideals are worth dying for? Why are we never satisfied? Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is? Is identity necessary? How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others) What is friendship? EVERYONE AND ANYONE IS WELCOME The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world. To learn more, visit https://socratescafe.com.

**Deep Talks: Explore, Connect, Grow** Are you craving conversations that go beyond the weather and work? Do you long to connect with others on a more meaningful level, exploring the big questions and delving into the intricacies of life, the universe, and everything in between? Deep Talks is a meetup group for curious minds who are eager to engage in thought-provoking discussions, share diverse perspectives, and foster genuine connections. We believe in creating a safe, inclusive, and stimulating environment where everyone feels comfortable expressing their thoughts and listening actively to others. **What to Expect**: * The primary language would be English, however in exceptional scenario we could switch if everyone is comfortable with another language. * Engaging Topics: We'll explore a wide range of subjects, from philosophy, psychology, and spirituality to current events, personal growth, and the future of humanity. We often have topics prepared for the day but we welcome topics by attendees as well. * Respectful Dialogue: Our discussions are built on a foundation of respect. We encourage open-mindedness, empathy, and a willingness to understand different viewpoints, even when they differ from our own. * No Experts Required: You don't need to be an expert in any field to participate. All that's required is a curious mind and a desire to engage in thoughtful conversation. **Join Us If You**: * Are tired of superficial small talk * Love to ponder life's big questions. * Enjoy hearing diverse perspectives. * Seek to connect with like-minded individuals * Are open to challenging your own assumptions. **What to bring**: * Your curiosity, enthusiasm and openess * Please as a courtesy, order a drink or food at the cafe and make sure to pay for it at the end. Come ready to listen, share, and dive deep! We can't wait to meet you and explore the depths together. 
Please make sure you're definitely able to make it before you RSVP. We don't want anyone missing out because someone else didn't show up. Thanks :)

Hay una pregunta que ha acompañado al ser humano desde **el principio de los tiempos.** Una pregunta que aparece en los momentos de silencio, en medio de las crisis, de los cambios, de los logros y también de las pérdidas. **¿Para qué estoy aquí realmente?** Este encuentro nace de esa búsqueda. No para ofrecer respuestas rápidas ni verdades prefabricadas, sino para explorar juntos aquellas preguntas que tienen el poder de cambiar nuestra forma de ver la vida. Porque llega un momento en el que el éxito no basta, las explicaciones no alcanzan y las certezas dejan de ser suficientes. Y es entonces cuando surge la necesidad de mirar más allá de lo visible, más allá de lo conocido, más allá de uno mismo. Este es un espacio para quienes sienten que hay algo más. Para quienes se atreven a **cuestionar, a buscar y a descubrir.** Tal vez no salgas con todas las respuestas. Pero puede que encuentres una pregunta tan poderosa que transforme para siempre la manera en que entiendes tu existencia. **[Únete a nuestro grupo de Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/H7ynTeq4dXvLYpGXbbeqdO)** Este evento lo hará Isabel Cuadra, terapeuta y mentora.

**THIS WEEK: “A.I.” - how far has this film predicted 2026 and beyond...?** We'll be watching and discussing clips from A.I. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. The film will be shown the night before at PHENOMENA cinema (https://maps.app.goo.gl/PJ2CHf4itcZCPA8DA) so everyone will have the chance to see the day before the event. https://phenomena-experience.com/index?pag=ficha&evento=438 Try to watch the film before coming to the meetup! Although we're sure you'll enjoy it even more after attending this event! This event will be free so please buy drinks/food from us at Charcha to keep making these cultural events possible. **ALSO SHOW YOUR OWN CLIPS!** We will discuss the film and have a break before the second half of the meetup where anyone can show a clip (usually youtube) from any film, tv, short etc. which they think is relevent/could help the discussion. The clip can be prepared or you can think of it in the session and we will do our best to pull it up on the screen! We will have clips ready too as backups although we want your perspectives! If you know a clip you'd like to show/discuss before attending a session, feel free to send it to me privately (meetup or WhatsApp 622229697) or to our WhatsApp group beforehand ([https://chat.whatsapp.com/DVL01x0sUYH2ZeZ5FDfUaI?mode=gi_t](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DVL01x0sUYH2ZeZ5FDfUaI?mode=gi_t)) so that we can have it prepared. **“Why another film club?” You may ask.** Talking about a film can never replace watching one...never. But we've found that when watching a film, a little context can go a long way. So we’ve decided to create a film club in the hope that there are other people out there who feel the same; who will enjoy exploring their own perspectives as well as others beyond justifying why you like or dislike a film. There is no judgement of films here. A-movie, B-movie, high-brow, low-brow, smart, dumb. This will be an open-discussion. There’ll be themes and certain films chosen but respectful interruptions and questions will be welcome throughout. To paraphrase Bong Joon-ho, once you overcome your knee-jerk judgement of a film, you can be introduced to so many more amazing films. This is a new meetup and the format may change. But for now, we will not show whole films at the event. Instead they will be announced beforehand and then discussed with clips at the event. We hope in the future, different hosts will choose different topics to focus on ranging from the universal like the essence of a story, to the practical minutia of film-making like cinematography, lighting or sound. Everyone is welcome.

Join the Columbus AI community for a special event. **Battle of the Personal Agents** is your chance to see what people are actually building with AI agents and personal automation systems. Whether you’re running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works. We’re interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how it’s hosted and managed, how you built it, and why you’ve chosen to keep using it. Live demonstrations are encouraged, so be prepared to show your code, architecture, workflows, and your agent performing real tasks. This is less about polished presentations and more about sharing practical experience, comparing approaches, and learning from one another. If you’d like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyone’s demonstrations. Come ready to show what you’ve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.

Title: Smart Search + AI: An Outcome-Driven Journey from IDP to a Suite of AI Register at the Columbus AWS meetup: [https://www.meetup.com/columbus-aws-amazon-web-services-meetup/events/313426379/](https://www.meetup.com/columbus-aws-amazon-web-services-meetup/events/313426379/) Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans. We created Smart Search, the world’s largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping what’s possible. Since then, we’ve built a suite of AI‑driven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomes—accelerating benefits decisions for our Nation’s Veterans. Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcome‑driven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served.

[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs. * Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details. * If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋 **IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...** [The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up. * This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries.

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia
