Open Heart Meditation Sessions with Amrita Rani (Live in-person and online on selected Thursdays via Zoom) You are warmly invited to join the Open Heart Meditation Sessions with Acharya Amrita Rani — a living space of awakenings and direct experience. These sessions are created both for beginners and seasoned practitioners who wish to deepen their meditation practice, stabilize awakening, and walk the path of enlightenment with guidance and support. Whether you are new or experienced, each gathering offers a grounded structure to help you build consistency in daily practice and grow in confidence on your spiritual path. At the heart of Open Heart teachings is direct recognition. Through the Two-Part Formula and precise meditative guidance, you are supported in shifting from self-based mode into selfless awareness, again and again, until cessation of suffering takes place. A central and deeply transformative practice in Open Heart is guru yoga. Through guru yoga, the practitioner directly connects with awakened awareness through devotion, transmission, and experiential recognition. With the help of this profound method, one recognizes their true selfless ease, the natural, effortless state beyond space and time. Alongside guru yoga, the sessions include insight meditation (Vipashyana), tantric methods, dynamic concentration, trauma-healing techniques, and foundational practices such as Bodhicitta prayers. Each session includes guided meditation, space for questions, reflection, and personal support. Rani’s meditation sessions are held live on Zoom on selected Thursdays from 18:30 to 20:00 (CET). Recordings may be available for continued integration and practice on her YouTube channel, The Sweetness of Enlightenment. Participation fee: 15 € per session Please make your payment in advance via PayPal before joining, to Rani’s PayPal account: kaisaeskeli@gmail.com Upcoming Thursday Sessions for Summer Season: 4.6.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 11.6.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 18.6.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 25.6.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 2.7.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 9.7.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 23.7.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) 30.7.2026 at 18:30–20:00 (CET) Zoom link for all sessions: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89766267672 Open Heart ashram (meditation center) is located in Zgornje Gorje, Slovenia.

Join us on a brand new Bear & Wildlife Watching Slovakia Tour. Come to Slovakia to experience one of Europe’s most wildlife-rich mountain regions. This tour is focused on **ethical and safe wildlife observation**, combined with light hiking, cultural highlights, and enough flexibility to adapt to weather and animal behaviour. Over five days, you will explore the **High Tatras and surrounding foothills**, home to brown bears, chamois, marmots, beavers, and ground squirrels. Observation always takes place **from a safe distance**, using **binoculars and spotting scopes**, under the guidance of experienced local guides who understand animal behaviour and terrain. This is **not a zoo experience** and sightings can never be guaranteed — but the areas we visit are carefully selected based on long-term local knowledge and seasonal animal movement. To see the tour on our website **[CLICK HERE](https://www.slovakation.com/tour/bear-wildlife-watching-tour-slovakia/).** There are more information about the tour. **NOTE**: This trip does not focus on long or demanding hikes, but a basic level of fitness is required. You should be comfortable walking for several hours at an easy pace, standing still during wildlife observation, and riding a bicycle on paved roads. The activities are designed to be accessible, but participants should be in good general health to enjoy the experience comfortably. **PROGRAM** **Day 1** - **Arrival and meeting in Krakow** Meet the group at **Kraków Airport** at 16:00 and transfer to Slovakia. After approx. 2,5 hours you will arrive to your hotel in the area of the Tatra mountains in Slovakia. **Day 2** - **Brown Bears & Beavers** We start early, setting off at dawn to quietly walk into a remote mountain valley, when bears are most active. From a safe distance, we scan the surrounding slopes using binoculars and spotting scopes, observing wildlife without disturbance. After a relaxed lunch, we visit a traditional open-air museum before heading out again in the late afternoon to watch beavers in their natural river habitat. **KM walked**: 13 km, **Meters ascended**: 500m, **Meters descended**: 500m **Day 3** - **Chamois, Marmots & Alpine Forests** After breakfast, we use a chairlift to gain altitude effortlessly, avoiding steep climbs and keeping the day relaxed. The open chairlift offers wide views but feels stable and comfortable — suitable even for those cautious about heights. From the upper station, we walk through alpine forests and meadows, scanning for chamois and marmots. After lunch, we visit the nearby Vazecka cave, adding another natural element to the day. **KM walked**: 8 km, **Meters ascended**: 100m, **Meters descended**: 600m **Day 4 - Bears Again & Recovery Day** We set off early again, this time using **e-bikes** to move efficiently along a quiet mountain road into a remote valley. Riding e-bikes allows us to cover distance quickly and save energy for wildlife observation. From the valley end, we scan the surrounding slopes for brown bears using binoculars, always from a safe distance. Participants should be **confident** **riding** a bicycle on paved roads. The afternoon is kept flexible for rest or recovery and possible evening visit of the local thermal pools. **KM biked**: 24 km, **Meters ascended**: 400m **Day 5 - Ground Squirrels & Departure** On our final day, we visit **Spiš Castle**, a UNESCO World Heritage Site set high above the surrounding countryside. Its vast open grounds are home to a thriving colony of ground squirrels, making it a unique and surprisingly accessible wildlife-watching location. We keep the program light and unhurried before transferring to the airport. Transfer back to the airport is scheduled to arrive by approximately **15:00**. It is safe to book return flights departing **after 17:00**. **NOTE** This itinerary and the duration of the activities are subject to change due to group abilities and preferences, weather conditions and forecasts, special events, etc. PRICE OF **845 EUR** **INCLUDES**: * 4X accommodation in 3\* hotel in twin rooms in Tatra mountains region * 4X breakfast and 4X dinner * 1X chair lift ticket * Airport transfers and transfers within the trip * Guiding by an experienced wildlife specialist with formal education in nature conservation and ecology, and many years of hands-on field experience observing large mammals in the Carpathians * E-bike rental * Entry fees to Spis Castle, Vazecka Cave and Vrbov thermal pools * All group transfers **EXCLUDES** * Drinks and personal expenses * Lunches * Travel cost to Krakow and back **BOOKING YOUR PLACE** Please visit my website and sign up **[OVER HERE](https://www.slovakation.com/tour/bear-wildlife-watching-tour-slovakia/)** You will pay only 25% at the time of your booking, if the booking is made at least 30 days before the departure. The balance will be due 30 days before your departure. **HOW TO GET THERE** **ARRIVAL** We are meeting at the airport in Krakow at 16:00. You can fly directly to Krakow from Brussels with Ryanair, Brussels Airlines or from Eindhoven in Netherlands with Ryanair of Wizzair. If the flights don´t work for you, you can spend the night before and after in Krakow, which is an interesting city itself, listed in UNESCO World Heritage. **DEPARTURE** We will be back at the airport on the last day at around 15:00, so you can fly back home after 17:00.

You can sleep in on the Sesquicentennial (observed), we’re shifting to the following Friday. But join the local UX community for a chat and some biscuits to catch up. If you were in CA for Figma Config, tell us all the lines and you can tell me how I can animate an SVG without coding it by hand, and why I’d even want to. Thanks to the team at Nationwide of supporting the group.

Most people use LLMs by feel: ask a question, read the answer, decide whether it “seems good,” and move on. That works for casual use. It does not work when you are building software, automating workflows, writing important documents, or relying on AI for anything that needs to be repeatable. In this talk, we’ll look at how to improve and evaluate the inputs and outputs of LLMs using practical measurement techniques. We’ll cover how prompt changes affect results, how to compare outputs, how to build simple evaluation sets, and how math-based methods like similarity scoring can help you move beyond guesswork. This will be beginner-friendly, so even if you don't know anything about AI, you should get something out of it. However, this will be a little more technical than our intro talks. You do not need to be an AI researcher, but programmers and technically curious attendees will get a lot out of it. We’ll cover: * Why “it looks good” is not enough * How to improve prompts by changing the input, context, and constraints * How to compare LLM outputs more systematically * Basic evaluation techniques for accuracy, consistency, and usefulness * How embeddings, cosine similarity, and scoring can help evaluate results * Where automated evaluation works — and where humans still need to stay in the loop By the end, you’ll have a practical mental model for treating LLMs less like magic and more like systems you can test, measure, and improve. 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.
