*“Az emberiség valódi problémája ez: Őskori érzelmeink, középkori intézményeink és istenszerű technológiáink vannak. És ez rémisztően veszélyes, és mindez most közeledik egy krízisponthoz.”* **Edward O. Wilson.** *“A kihalás az emberi törekvés eltörlése.”* **Carl Sagan.** Az emberiség fejlődése jelentősen megváltoztatta körülöttünk a világot, olyan lehetőségeket nyitva meg, amelyek korábban elképzelhetetlenek voltak. Az ipari forradalom óta az emberiség életszínvonala, várható élettartama és boldogsága drasztikusan megnőtt, miközben számos súlyos probléma – mint a szegénység, a betegségek és a háborúk halálossága, vagy a rasszizmus – jelentősen csökkent. A több lehetőséggel viszont több veszély is jár. Egyre fejlettebb technológiáinkkal lehetőségünk van az emberiség legtöbb nagy problémájának megoldására, ugyanakkor most már mi magunk jelentjük a legnagyobb fenyegetést saját túlélésünkre. **Nick Bostrom** & **Toby Ord** az egzisztenciális katasztrófát az emberiség hosszú távú potenciáljának tartós, visszafordíthatatlan elvesztéseként definiálják (amely nemcsak az emberiség kihalását foglalja magában, hanem akár a tartós totalitárius disztópiát vagy a helyrehozhatatlan összeomlást is). Bostrom ökölszabály-javaslata az egzisztenciális katasztrófa kezelésére a „Maxipok" stratégia alkalmazása: maximalizáljuk egy "elfogadható" kimenetel valószínűségét (amely bármely olyan kimenetelt jelent, ami elkerüli az egzisztenciális katasztrófát). *Valóban ez lenne a legjobb hozzáállás az emberiség számára?* Ezalkalommal megvizsgáljuk az emberiséget leginkább fenyegető egzisztenciális katasztrófák esélyeit, közelségét, és azt, hogy mit tehetünk ellenük egyéni illetve közösségi szinteken. **Bevezetés (15 perc)** Rövid bemutatkozással kezdünk, ahol a résztvevők röviden bemutatják magukat. **Többek között az alábbi kérdéseket is feltesszük (1 óra 45 perc):** - A világ jelenlegi állapotában minek kellene a civilizációnk legnagyobb prioritásának lennie? - Szerinted az emberek általában mekkora esélyt becsülnek egy egzisztenciális katasztrófa bekövetkezésére a következő 50 évben? Hogyan változik ez a szám, ha szakértőket kérdezünk meg helyettük? - Van-e erkölcsi kötelezettségünk arra, hogy megóvjuk a jövőt a következő generációk számára? A jövő megóvása alapvető érdekünk-e, vagy inkább egy mások javára hozott áldozat részünkről? - Milyen filantrópiát tartsunk a legfontosabbnak és miért? - Egy egzisztenciális katasztrófa esetén mely jövőbeli lehetőségek elvesztését fájlalnád a legjobban? - Hogyan kellene priorizálnunk az alábbi fenyegetési kategóriák kezelését? 1.Természeti katasztrófák (pl. aszteroida-becsapódás) 2.Emberi tevékenység által okozott környezeti katasztrófák (pl. klímaváltozás) 3.Nukleáris fegyverek 4.Biológiai fegyverek 5.Mesterséges szuperintelligencia 6.Ismeretlen ismeretlenek - Mely érdekcsoportok állhatnak a fenti fenyegetések mögött és hogyan? Hogyan lehetne őket ellenérdekeltté tenni? Megváltoztathatná-e a viselkedésüket a halhatatlanság felajánlása az egyesített erőfeszítés jutalmaként? - Képes-e egy kevésbé intelligens lény irányítani egy nála intelligensebb lényt? - Hogyan éreznéd magad, ha egy nálad intelligensebb lény kegyétől függenél, akit nem ismersz és nem tudsz felfogni? - Miért kap olyan kevés figyelmet és forrást az egzisztenciális kockázatok mérséklése? *Ajánlott film: [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11286314/](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11286314/) - Ha megváltoztatnánk a gazdasági hátteret, az alapvető változásokat hozna az egzisztenciális veszélyek mérséklésére fordított erőforrásokban is? - Az egzisztenciális veszélyek csökkentése állami vagy globális hatáskör kellene legyen? - Mi lehet a legjobb, amit most tehetünk? A maximális hatás érdekében most használni az erőforrásainkat, vagy későbbi esetleges szükséghelyzetre tartalékolni inkább? Más szavakkal: Mennyire élünk döntő pillanatokat most? **(az esemény magyar nyelvű)** **RSVP:** A helyszín jelezte felém, hogy az utóbbi időben sajnos nem érkezik elegendő fogyasztás a csoportunktól. Miközben a létszám növekszik, a fogyasztás csökken :( Ezért bevezetünk egy egyszerű rendszert: a fogyasztás kiváltja a belépőt. Ha fogyasztasz, nem szükséges hozzájárulni a csoporthoz. Az alábbiakat tudjátok választani: - Bruschetta (vegetáriánus, tényleg nagyon finom): 3000 Ft - Alkoholmentes vörösbor (pohár): 2000 Ft (kedvezményes ár) - Csomag (bruschetta + bor): 4500 Ft Ebben az esetben nincs külön belépődíj. Ha nem fogyasztasz ezek közül, akkor marad a min. 400 Ft hozzájárulás, ajánlottan 1000 Ft. Köszönöm a megértést!

The Men’s Circle of Excellence Gathering, for men who seek truth, mastery, and a life beyond mediocrity. The goal is simple: to support each other in mastering mind and spirit, breaking free from comfort, and moving toward excellence in every area of life. Modern life offers endless distractions but little real connection. Too often, men walk the path of self-development alone, or struggle against the negative pull of today’s society. The Men’s Circle of Excellence was created to change that: to bring support, accountability, challenge, and community energy. We gather in person to share openly, confront fears, and inspire one another to reach higher. Here, power is rooted in virtue, strength is balanced with empathy, and ambition is guided by wisdom. How it works: • Welcome & introductions: Meet new members and reconnect with familiar faces. • Open sharing: Each man speaks about his current challenges, fears, or obstacles. • Honest reflections: The group responds with insight and encouragement. • Connection Time: After the circle, we'll have extra time to relax, talk, and build friendships. Recommendation: • Before the event, take some time to think about your current situation and what to bring into the circle. Limited to max. 8 men per gathering to keep the space focused, personal, and meaningful. Confirm your attendance to reserve your spot.

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.

A reflective circle for parents abroad and international couples, led by an integral counselor and parenting expert, offering connection, compassionate understanding, and emotional support across cultures and challenges. (EN/FR spoken) Do you ever feel that parenting abroad asks more of you than anyone can really see? Do you ever miss the village you thought you would have around you? Do you ever feel the weight of holding so much for your children while also trying to hold yourself together? Do you ever notice how living far from home can make ordinary parenting moments feel heavier, lonelier, or more intense? Do you ever wonder why small misunderstandings in an international relationship can suddenly feel so big? Do you ever feel stretched between cultures, languages, expectations, and ways of raising children? Do you ever long for a place where you do not have to explain so much — where you can simply arrive as you are? Do you ever feel that parenting abroad brings up parts of you that need support too? Do you ever wish for more steadiness, more understanding, and more connection in the middle of family life far from home? Do you ever wonder how much easier it might feel if you did not have to carry it all alone? Many parents living abroad carry not only the daily realities of raising children, but also the emotional weight of distance, adaptation, cultural difference, and the absence of familiar support. In this circle, we make space for these experiences to be named, shared, and held in a way that brings more clarity, connection, and relief. **Parenting Between Worlds** is a circle for parents abroad and international couples, rooted in an integral approach to parenting, relationships, and emotional life. It is a space to slow down, reflect, and be supported in the real complexity of raising children between cultures and far from home. Together, we explore the emotional, relational, and practical challenges of parenting abroad: the loneliness, the pressure, the misunderstandings, the longing for home, and the question of how to stay connected — to yourself, to your partner, and to your children — while living between worlds. This is not a place where you need to have it all together. It is a place where you can come with what is real. Through guided reflection, shared experience, and thoughtful conversation, we create a safe and supportive space where parents can feel less alone, more resourced, and more able to show up with steadiness and heart. Leave feeling more understood, more grounded, and more connected — to yourself and to the family life you are trying to build. The events will take place with a minimum of 5 participants. The group is closing after the first session, no new members can join to protect the safe place. At the end of the first session, we will ask you to decide wether you commit to participating on the remaining 2 sessions. \-\-\-\-\-\- **About the host:** Eszter is a long-time expat, a mother of three, and an integral counselor. She left her home country at the age of 21 to study in Paris, where she first experienced how deeply financial resources — or the lack of them — can shape a person’s life. She began in the expat bubble with her boyfriend, then gradually opened herself to the people and culture around her. She had her first two children in Paris before moving back to Hungary after eight years. Back in Hungary, she took over her mother’s company while raising children as a single mother after her husband left her. At the same time, her grandmother was living with Alzheimer’s, and her mother was caring for her, which meant Eszter carried the responsibility of helping provide for seven people. Trying to find a way out of this pressure, she moved to what became her second home, the Czech Republic, to join a man who later turned out to be toxic. Despite having three children, one of them still a toddler, she chose to raise them alone rather than remain in an environment that was harmful to them. After surviving — and eventually thriving — alone with three children in a country whose language was difficult to learn, she took on several jobs. One of them involved guiding tourists, where she discovered her gift for building trust and connection with people within just a few minutes. When the pandemic made travel impossible, she continued deepening this path by completing a coaching certification. Yet she felt coaching was not gentle enough for the kind of relationship she wanted to offer her clients. That led her to begin a three-year training in integral psychology and become an integral counselor. Because their rage required, she also took on the role of supporting her elderly parents, traveling 500 km twice a month to check on them. Since than she has been living the reality of so-called “sandwich caregiving,” caring both for (the more and more independent) children at home and parents who have become increasingly dependent on her emotional support. Her parenting journey has also brought her through profound challenges: supporting a daughter caught in an anxiety cycle around visits to a narcissistic father until she could eventually stand up for herself; learning to hold and accept a son’s digital addiction while, over time, setting clearer limits around how she could support him; and enduring one of the hardest experiences of all, when her other daughter went through amnesia and cut off all emotional relationships, including with her. These experiences led Eszter into a deep therapeutic journey of her own. Through it, she learned how powerfully defense mechanisms serve to protect life, how reparative emotional experiences — especially those within families — can bring healing, and how even one stable, safe attachment can become a life-giving container for a child shaped by trauma. Today, her mission is to support parents in being parents. She believes that while therapy can be deeply valuable, the most important factor in a child’s life is a safe relationship with a caregiver. When parents can offer that, they do not only support their own children — they also help interrupt patterns that would otherwise be passed to the next generation. For Eszter, this work is not only about helping the individuals she meets directly, but also about contributing to a healthier future for humanity. ​ Having lived for more than 20 years as an expat in two different countries, she has learned both how to stand strongly on her own feet and how that same self-reliance can come at a cost. She lives with a condition that will likely remain part of her life forever and requires great discipline around food and daily choices. This has taught her something essential: freedom is never the absence of limits. Rather, freedom lies in the tiny moment of awareness between what happens and how we respond to it. That is the heart of the work she now offers to clients: helping them hold multiple perspectives, become more accepting and compassionate toward their own choices, and meet both inner experience and outer circumstance with greater awareness. Eszter believes that when parents become aware of their own triggers and can separate them from what belongs to the child, parenting becomes much easier. And when we understand the needs and impulses a child is acting from, we can meet them with more acceptance, more understanding, and more loving guidance — rather than fear, conflict, or control. ​ She sees therapy, in many ways, as a substitute for the good-enough, loving, accepting parent. And one of her deepest intentions is to empower parents to trust that they, too, can become that kind of presence for their child.

Every Saturday at 8:00 PM, we gather in the city to share languages, cultures, and conversations.

Whether you’re new to Budapest or call it home, this meetup is your chance to connect in a relaxed, open-minded space. Join us to swap stories, practice new languages, and build genuine friendships across cultures.

Irány Hűvösvölgy! The weather finally seems to be on our side, so we’re excited to organise our long-awaited Kerek Perec hike! 🌿 We’ll meet at the last stop of tram 56/61 on Sunday and take a relaxed circular walk in the Buda hills. Although the event is three hours long we won’t be hiking the entire time; we’ve prepared lots of games and activities so we’ll be taking frequent breaks to practise Hungarian. Along the way, you’ll pick up useful vocabulary related to nature and hiking, hear about a couple of famous Hungarian hikers, and work together in different group competitions. You’re very welcome to join regardless of your Hungarian (and fitness) level — we’ll have activities adapted for beginners (A1), elementary (A2), and intermediate (B1) learners. You can buy your ticket here: https://cooltix.hu/event/69dcd42f25f6c22392a700e6 PSA: the dog in the pictures won’t be joining us this time — he tends to demand a bit too much attention :)

This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD

Mental Health, how do you understand it? How can you improve it? How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went? Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence? Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp. This group is hosted by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

It's entirely up to you! **What to Expect at the Intro Circle** \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ Near the beginning of the event (1:30 pm), we do a standup: * Organizer announcements, updates, and logistics Round 1 - (7 secs max): * Your name * What you're working on * What you can help others with Round 2: * Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too. Round 3: * Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool. After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!

Come assist Van Buren Shelter (https://ymcacolumbus.org/locations/vanburen) staff in serving dinners and cleaning up on the 3rd Tuesday of each month. Dinner for the women is 5-6 pm and for the families is 6:15-7:15 pm. There is ample free parking available in the shelter's lot. The recommended area to park is in green in the image above. There will be a new entrance for the time being. We are asking all volunteers to enter through the Donation Dock door, the orange mark on the image above. This door is located between the Single Adults and Family Shelter. You will see 2 large garage doors with a large green trash compactor in the center. Please head to the closest garage door to the building wall, with a ramp leading up. There, you will see a door with a sign stating instructions on how to enter the building. Please ring the doorbell, and a staff member will come and escort you into the building. If a staff member takes longer than 5 minutes, please call the front desk at 614-689-2020. This is a new process for us, and we do not want to keep you waiting! We appreciate your patience as we navigate this temporary change. The shelter needs a volunteer count the day before the event so sign-up ends Monday at 4:50 PM. Afterwards some of us go to the Omnipresent Atheists Weekly Meetup in progress to have a bit to eat or drink (http://www.meetup.com/omnipresentatheists/). Volunteers must be 14 or older. Since we will be working around families, the YMCA does not permit volunteering by individuals with convictions for violent or sexual crimes. The YMCA reserves the right to run background checks on volunteers. For questions, comment on this page or contact: Andrew, awhit12@yahoo.com, (614)937-5802 (cell). Please let Andrew know if you volunteer anytime other than our COUNT events so that he can count your hours toward our service record.

It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went? Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence? Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.
