Open Dialogue – Discovering Together in Vienna
We will meet in a calm and friendly place ( Parc, Café, Restaurant) to explore together some of Jiddu Krishnamurti’s key questions about awareness, relationship, and freedom.
There will be no teaching, no authority — only open dialogue and attentive listening.
Everyone is welcome, whether you are familiar with Jiddu Krishnamurti or simply curious about life and self-understanding.
We’ll start with an open conversation around a theme such as “Listening without judgment” or “Can thought bring clarity?”
Please bring openness, curiosity, and a readiness to listen — no books or notes needed.
The spirit is not to discuss “what should be,” but to observe together “what is.”

Still not booked? Well, Slots are limited. Book now, and Join us at Pickwick's, a cozy international pub perfect for film chat and new friendships.
You do not need to be a film expert. You just need to bring your curiosity, your favorite movie opinions, and an open mind. To make the evening even easier, think of a few movie questions before you come, such as your favorite movie of all time, a film everyone should watch once, a comfort movie, or a hidden gem you love.
The organisational fee is 10 euros plus one drink. Matches will be shared after the event ends, and if you do not get a match, you can join the next event free of charge.

Pickwick's offers the perfect atmosphere with its warm lighting, bookshelves, and relaxed vibe for great conversations.
Das anarchische Gehirn – Vortrag über Nicht-Alltägliche Bewusstseinszustände
(This talk will be held in German)
Was haben Holotropes Atmen, Zen-Meditation, Isolationstanks und Meisterpflanzen gemeinsam? Die Kognitionswissenschaft hat heute eine präzise Antwort. In diesen Zuständen lockert das Gehirn vorübergehend seine stärksten inneren Filter. Tief verwurzelte Überzeugungen – über uns selbst, über andere, über die Welt – werden verhandelbar. Echte Transformation wird möglich.
Aber genau das macht diese Zustände auch heikel.
Dieser Vortrag erkundet dasselbe Terrain anhand zweier sehr unterschiedlicher Landkarten: den klassischen „Zehn-Ochsen-Bildern" aus der Zen-Tradition und dem REBUS-Modell aus der modernen Bewusstseinsforschung (Friston & Carhart-Harris). Die eine Karte zeigt, welche Stationen auf dem Weg erkennbar sind und was sie bedeuten – die andere, was im Nervensystem dabei geschieht.
Daraus folgen praktische Fragen, die jeden betreffen, der solche Erfahrungen sucht oder begleitet: Wie erkenne ich, ob ein Zustand wirklich transformiert – oder nur tief beeindruckt? Was braucht es, damit Offenheit zu echter Veränderung wird? Und woran erkenne ich, ob diese Veränderung mir nützt?
Der Abend verbindet Theorie mit gelebter Praxis – und endet mit konkreten Orientierungen für den eigenen Weg.
06.06.2026, Türen offen: 18:30 // Beginn: 19:00
Eintritt 5€\* (Für Mitglieder frei. Werde ein Mitglied: www.psychedelicsociety.at)
Cash only
Sagedergasse 18, 1120 Vienna (Eingang zwischen Billa and Bipa; nicht Barrierefrei)

Seit über 30 Jahren beschäftigt er sich praktisch und theoretisch mit nicht-alltäglichen Bewusstseinszuständen, insbesondere an der Schnittstelle von Kunst, Wissenschaft und kontemplativer Praxis.

Transformative Trencin (from Vienna)
Crowned European Capital of Culture 2026 under the motto "Awakening Curiosity", beautiful Trencin lies right on the Vah, Slovakia's longest river.
From Vienna main station, a quick train whisks us over to the Slovak capital in less than 60 minutes. There, we have a quick break before taking another express train to our destination. Once arrived, the immediate thing catching our eyes is Trencin castle, the city's dominant feature. Before making our way up castle hill through Brezina Park, we first wander through the town's quaint city core along baroque Hotel Elizabeth, elongated Mierové Square, the medieval Parish Stairway built in 1568 and Gothic St. Michael's Carner.
Underway we'll have fun with ice breakers, discussion prompts and local trivia. After dinner, we take a casual walk along the Vah river bank back to the station. Heading westwards, our return train follows the stunning silhouette of the Lower Carpathians.
To secure your spots, please ...
Step 1: RSVP here on Meetup first (optional but recommended)
Step 2: Complete your booking at https://vienna.ixpat.com/trencin
Picnic @ Donau Insel
Bring a picnic blanket, food and drinks!
More [precise location](https://maps.app.goo.gl/rDz7PUqSVmCnX7FK6?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy) will be shared on the day via WhatsApp!

Then we will go into a topic discussion.
