Dianetics - The MODERN science of mental health.
This meetup is your introduction to Dianetics, and you can have your questions answered.
**[DIANETICS THE ALL-TIME CLASSIC ON THE HUMAN MIND](https://www.dianetics.org/about/films/what-is-dianetics.html)**
For 75 years, Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health has remained popular, with over 20 million copies sold across 206 nations.
Why? Because it challenges everything you thought you knew-about yourself, your decisions, and the unseen influences affecting your life.
You may not know what the reactive mind is-yet. But once you do, it will change your life forever.
This hidden part of your mind stores painful experiences and uses them against you, altering your thoughts, emotions and behaviors in ways you don't even realize.
Inside this handbook, you'll discover:
⢠Why the same struggles keep repeatingâand how you can break free
⢠The real reason behind stress, unreasonable fears, and negative emotions
⢠A clear step-by-step method to clear your mind and unlock your true potential
This is not theoryâit's a practical, one-on-one journey into your reactive mind and how you can get rid of it.
You don't have to wait for change-you can start today.
**Discover the Power of Your Mind**
Join us for a relaxed, interactive **Dianetics Meetup**, where it's your chance to explore the groundbreaking discoveries in *Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health* and have all your questions answered.

Depression, Anxiety, Stress or Worry Concerns? Free Meetup Class
Depression, Anxiety, Stress and worry are real concerns when we consider mental health. What causes the overwhelming sadness, the insomnia, the frightening panic attacks, the lack of energy, the mental fatigue and nervousness experienced by so many people.
https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/2/8/1/0/600_459310256.jpeg
Even a temporary state of stress can affect our ability to reason and result in actions or decisions that have disastrous long-term results.
What is it that is holding you back and stops you from being YOU?
Quality of life depends so much on mental health. People desire happiness but authentic happiness is often short-lived. Sometimes only a dim memory from childhood. Children are known for their ability to find joy in the simplest of things. What is it that affects a person's ability to experience true happiness?
The Circumstances are the same, but the person no longer responds with positive emotions. Instead he or she may have a persistent gnawing anger, fear or sadness that depresses the consciousness and brings the person to reliance on pills or alcohol.
The change may be gradual, occurring slowly over many years or it can be sudden, triggered by a traumatic stress such as the death of a loved one or a broken heart.
The answer to these problems has been searched for for thousands of years but the problem appears to getting worse, with the rates of depression and suicide climbing alarmingly. Very few lives remain unaffected either directly or indirectly by these modern scourges.
Could it be that the modern "treatments" and "solutions" to these problems are actually making things worse? That could only occur if the people developing and using these "treatments" did not know the true underlying reason for these problems.
Today's meetup topic is based on Dianetics, The Modern Science of Mental Health by L. Ron Hubbard
We will discuss the underlying reason for depression, anxiety, fear, nervousness, unhappiness, phobias and many other unwanted emotions and reactions as revealed and is fully explained in L. Ron Hubbard's book Dianetics.
Life can become fun again, just like it was when you were a child.
Hard to Believe? Well don't believe - find out for yourself and then you will KNOW.
You have the opportunity to have all your questions answered.
Nothing in Dianetics has to be true for you unless you have observed it and it is true according to your own observation.
Today's meetup enables you to make your own observations.
Make this go right for you, RSVP yes and ensure you attend this meetup.
Know Yourself, Know Life!

There will be food, networking and some surprise swag!Agenda:
6:20 - Intro
6:30 - Talks
8:00 till late - networking & chat (& drinks optional)Speakers and Talks:
Talk 1: Olga Mirensky - Senior Staff Site Reliability Engineer @ Ping Identity
Olga and Her Agent Attended AI Engineer Conference. Lessons Learned
What happens when you let an experimental Stand-In Agent run loose against a live conference environment? To follow the fast-paced sessions of an AI Engineer conference, I built an agent while at the conference. The agent monitored talks and distilled what actually mattered to me - filtering for high-value signal and turning it into specs ready to implement or articles I should read.
I started with a different platform, but pivoted to an ADK agent deployed to GCP Agent Platform. Identical system prompt, different platform architecture, different LLM - completely different outcomes.
This talk is a transparent look at what happens when agentic experiments meet reality, including an architectural runaway bug that burned 1M tokens per minute.
We look past the hype and focus on the real engineering rigour required to build purposeful agents, with four key takeaways:
* The Purpose Filter: Why does your agent care about this specific talk? If itâs not highly unique, youâre just automating noise.
* Architecture > Hype: The gap between what you expect and what actually happens at runtime and why.
* The Personalised Flywheel: High-signal distillation requires deep context about you, your team, and where you are in your journey.
* Clear Goal Setting: Moving from âautonomousâ to âpurposefulâ.
In the replay demo Iâll walk through my flywheel showing how the agent filtered the content in real-time, picked up on tech I am interested in, turned it into an implementable spec, and how AI tools can close the loop to further automate the entire implementation, testing, and release cycle.
Talk 2: Sahil Bahadur Devkota - Full Stack Developer
Beyond LLMs: why RAG is equally important
In this talk, I'll break down how RAG works, why is it really important in real-world and it's popular architectural pattern. We'll look at the core components of a RAG pipeline, discuss it's implementation approach, and cover some of the key things to think about when building an AI applications with RAG.
Whether you're working with AI or building application that need accurate responses, you'll leave with a practical understanding of when RAG make sense - and when it doesn't.
Talk 3: Abhijeet Kumar - AI & Automation | Cloud enthusiast
Beyond RAG: Building an Agentic "Second Brain" with FastAPI, pgvector, and Gemini
Move beyond static note-taking apps. This talk explores Project NeuralFortressâa custom, Python-built knowledge management system designed to actively synthesize information. Weâll walk through evolving a basic RAG script into an agentic pipeline using FastAPI for routing, Neon PostgreSQL (pgvector) for vector storage, and Google Gemini for cognitive processing.
In Development (Sneak Peek):
A brief look at experimental features currently in testing to make the system fully autonomous:
GraphRAG: Mapping multi-hop relationships beyond standard vector distance.
MCP Integration: Native database queries directly from your code editor.
Async Watchers: Autonomous background web scraping and data ingestion.
How to find us:
Doors open at 5:45 PM at our host the Mantel Group, Level 2/452 Flinders St, Melbourne. Message via Meetup or Slack if you are arriving after 6:00, as the lifts won't let you up.

How the mind works
The optimum computing machine is a subject many of us have studied. If you were building one how would you design it?
First the computer should be able to compute with perfect accuracy on any problem in the universe and produce answers which were always and invariably right.
Second the computer would have to be swift, working much more quickly than the problem and process could be vocally articulated.
Third the computer would have to be able to handle large numbers of variables and large numbers of problems simultaneously.
Forth, the computer would have to be able to evaluate its own data and there would have to remain available within it not only a record of its former conclusions but the evaluations leading to those conclusions.
Fifth, the computer would have to be served by a memory bank of nearly infinite capacity and would have to be available to the analytical portion of the computer in the smallest fractions of a second.
Sixth, the computer would have to be able to rearrange former conclusions or alter them in the light of new experience.
Seventh, the computer would need no exterior director, but would be entirely self determined about its programing guided only by the necessity âvalue of the solution which it itself would determine.
Eight the computer should be self servicing and self arming against present and future damage and would be able to estimate future damage.
Ninth the computer should be served by perception by which it could determine necessity âvalue.
Tenth ,the memory bank should store perceptions as perceived ,consecutive with time received with the smallest possible time divisions between perception .It would then store in color-Visio (moving),tone audio (flowing),odor ,tactile and self sensation ,all of them cross âcoordinated .
Eleventh, for the purposes of solutions, it would have to be able to create new situations and imagine new perceptions hitherto not perceived and should be able to conceive these to itself in terms of tone âaudio ,color-visio ,odor, tactile, and self sensation âand should be able to file anything so conceived as imagined ,labeled âmemoriesâ
Twelfth, the entire machine should be portable.
It might be somewhat astonishing at first to conceive such a computer .But the fact is, the machine is in existence .There are billions of them in use today and many ,many more billions have been made and used in the past .
In fact youâve got one .for we are dealing with the human mind.

Engineering Machine Consciousness Monthly Meetup
The discussion topic for this meetup will be identity and whether or not history is a necessary condition for consciousness as Dretske proposed.
James
Where do identities begin and end?
Join us for an informal round-table on some of philosophy's oldest questions lead by Sean Crowley: What is a thing? Where do identities begin and end? Is perspective a limitation on reality, or a fundamental feature of it? And what might it mean to speak of an Absolute beyond all finite distinctions?
Drawing on Spinoza, David Bohm, Carlo Rovelli, George Spencer-Brown, and Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Sean will give a condensed introduction to Groundless Perspectival Realism â a metaphysical framework that questions absolute intrinsic identity, exploring reality instead through relation, perspective, and wholeness.
We will meet at the Captain Melville at 2pm for a 2:15pm start sharp. **Please note the new $5 mandatory donation entry fee** (cash or transfer on day) to help with MeetUp subscription costs, venue costs, etc.
There is no pre-requisite preparation necessary, nor a philosophical background, all that is required is a curious mind. These discussions are both a Socrates Cafe style discussion and lively metaphysical dojo, in the spirit of learning and friendly debate, so please feel free to challenge assumptions and be prepared to have your own assumptions challenged.
This event is also posted to the Philosophy Circle group.
Topics include:
* Identity & thinghood
* Perspective & observation
* Relationality and continuity
* Truth & reality
* The nature of the Absolute
Sean Crowley is the author of the forthcoming book The Infinite Now and host of The Infinite Now with Sean Crowley, exploring metaphysics, consciousness, science, and the philosophical implications of non-duality.
Hope to see you there!

How the mind is making the Body Ill. Free Meetup Talk
How the Mind is making the Body Ill!
What the mind is doing to the body. (yours)
Did you know that about 70 percent of the physician's current roster of diseases fall into the category of psychosomatic illness?
Psychosomatic Illnesses are those which have a mental origin but are nevertheless organic.
Psycho, of course, means mind and somatic refers to body; the term psychosomatic means the mind making the body ill or illnesses which have been created physically within the body by derangement of the mind.
At today's meetup you are able to learn why is it that some people recover promptly from illness, trauma or accidents whilst others receiving the very same treatments do so slowly, not at all or relapse.
When one desires to handle any unwanted condition in life the mind plays a crucial role. Why is it then that all to many confess they know very little about the mind or anything at all.
The mind and the problem of psychosomatic illness are entirely embraced by Dianetics (the Modern Science of Mental Health ) and by Dianetics technique.
https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/1/5/a/1/600_462605537.jpeg
Dianetics means: What the mind is doing to the body.
Trough the application of Dianetics technique you will be able to confirm that when one resolves the problem of human aberration (any deviation or departure from rationality) you naturaly get great response all around. (Not just body related)
Bizarre aches and pains in various portions of the body are generally psychosomatic. Migraine headaches are psychosomatic.
Arthritis, dermatitis, allergies, asthma some coronary difficulties, eye trouble, bursitis, ulcers, sinusitis, etc., form a very small section of the psychosomatic catalog.
Therefore the catalog of ills affected by Dianetics technique is very long.
Dianetics is something that anyone can use to help improve himself and his fellows.
My own truth is that the hidden source of all psychosomatic ills and human aberration has been discovered and accurate skills have been developed for their handling.
I also know that many other people have experienced this to be true.
Dianetics is a path to knowing how to know, unlocking the gates to be better future for yourself or others you love or are responsible for.
Only by reading the Dianetics book (or watching the DVD) in full can one get an understanding of the workings of the mind and the potential merits that applying Dianetics technique yourself may have for you.
Amherst College Political Science Professor, Dr Frederick L. Schuman declaration in the New York times: "History has become a race between Dianetics and catastrophe. Dianetics will win, if enough people are challenged in time to understand it"
Your own investigation into Dianetics The Modern Science of Mental Health is prudent and welcomed. It's after all very sensible to investigate personally why this explosive bestseller book has sold more copies than any other book in its category and is the most influential book ever written about the mind.
The above are some of my own opinions, experiences, and observations. As always results obtained by the individual are up to him. No promises are made by me or anyone or anybody.
Any technique no matter how good does not work for people that do not want to change, are not interested or have other agendas. Those that do not fall into those categories tend to do very well and flourish and prosper because of it.
Truth is not what people say it is. it is what it is.
All People of goodwill are welcome.
Contact us if today's date or time do not suit your schedule.
If one can not make it to our meetup class then it's recommended you get yourself a copy of the Dianetics book or DVD by contacting the event organizer.
Know yourself Know Life!.

(Cross-Posting) From Joints to Gestures: Reading Hands in Unity
Do **NOT** sign up to this one and sign-up at https://www.meetup.com/columbusjs/events/313386504/
=======================================
A hand tracker gives you joints, not a gesture.
This talk shows how you get from raw joints to a "thumbs-up" in Unity: the pipeline that cleans up the data, how a gesture becomes a few 0-to-1 values within tolerance, and why orientation matters as much as finger shape.
Includes a live demo of tuning gesture thresholds.
Food and drinks will be available.

Want to Truly Heal from Emotional Trauma?
Why are we unhappy? Where does emotional pain come from? Studies show that people who suffer from long-term emotional pain have painful experiences in their lives that were never fully resolved in their mind. In other words, there were issues in the past that were not completely dealt with. This can include abuse in childhood, breakups, divorce, death of a loved one, to name a few.
How do you know whether you have gotten over something painful? Here is an easy test: Do you still have attention on what had happened to you? For instance, do you still find yourself thinking about something painful that you went through? If you are, then you are not over it. In fact, in severe cases, people find themselves playing a "tape" in their mind over and over again.
So how do you heal from your past? How do you stop the "tape" playing in your mind? In this meeting, you will learn a technique to help you with that.
Come join us! Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there.
This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology life improvement center.

AI Agents 101: How to Make ChatGPT Do Actual Work
Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat.
But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review.
In this beginner-friendly session, weâll demystify what AI agents actually are â without hype or jargon. Weâll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity.
Weâll cover:
* What makes an AI âagentâ instead of just a chatbot
* How agents break tasks into steps
* Where agents are genuinely useful today
* Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review
* How to design simple AI workflows for your own work
* A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish
No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now.
LOGISTICS AND PARKING:
The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks!
The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
