Healing

Practice Buddhist meditation in the middle of Budapest! The meditation is suitable for beginners. Each regular meditation is guided and begins with a short introduction. (all together is about 30-40 minutes) Our regular Buddhist meditations have proven popular with people who want to integrate authentic Buddhist methods into their daily lives. For the modern lay person who is juggling work, relationships, and an active role in society, we teach a meditation that is easy to learn, and profound and powerful for experienced practitioners. The meditation originates from the Karma Kagyu tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. It has a cumulative effect on mind, leading to greater clarity and calmness. Fearlessness, joy, and active compassion are the result of regular practice of Buddhist meditation. * Do I need any special clothing? No special clothing needed. * Does the attendance cost anything? No, the meditation is free.

From the earliest moments of human reflection, people have asked a question as simple as it is profound: **Why are we here?** "*The unexamined life is not worth living,*" Socrates The search for the meaning of life is not merely an abstract puzzle; it is woven into our choices, our values, and the way we understand happiness, suffering, and purpose. In ancient Athens, Socrates suggested that a meaningful life begins with examination, placing self-knowledge at the center of human existence. For Socrates, meaning was not something handed to us but something discovered **through dialogue, questioning, and moral awareness**. Aristotle later offered a different but complementary vision. He proposed that the purpose of human life is eudaimonia, often translated as **flourishing**. According to Aristotle, meaning is found not in fleeting pleasure but in living virtuously, developing our capacities, and contributing to the life of the community. A meaningful life, in his view, is one lived in accordance with reason, balance, and excellence of character. Modern philosophy introduced a more unsettling perspective. Jean-Paul Sartre argued that human beings are “condemned to be free.” There is no predetermined purpose, no universal script that defines our existence. Instead, meaning emerges from **our choices**. We create who we are through action, and with that freedom comes responsibility. Meaning, then, is not discovered but constructed. Simone de Beauvoir extended this existential insight by emphasizing that meaning is not created in isolation. Human freedom exists in relation to others. To live meaningfully is to recognize both one’s own freedom and the freedom of others, and to engage in projects that affirm shared humanity. For de Beauvoir, meaning involves responsibility, connection, and the ethical use of freedom in a world that offers no fixed answers. Across these perspectives, a fascinating tension emerges. *Is meaning something we discover, cultivate, or create?* Is it rooted in virtue, happiness, responsibility, relationships, or purpose? Perhaps the enduring power of this question lies precisely in the fact that no single answer has ever satisfied everyone. Today, the question remains open, inviting each generation to respond in its own way. Philosophy offers frameworks, science offers explanations, culture offers narratives—but ultimately the question turns toward each of us personally. So as we begin this seminar, we return to the question that has echoed across centuries of thought and experience: **What is the meaning of life to you?** **BIO**: Georgiana Turculet is a multidisciplinary philosopher and two-time Marie Curie fellow. She holds a PhD from Central European University and has held academic positions at several European institutions, including the Department of Philosophy at Pompeu Fabra University and the Department of Philosophy at University of Copenhagen If the Paypal system is not working for any reason, don't worry, you can make a contribution on location, which helps us to pay for the meetup service and to keep the event going.

Foundation models are leaving the cloud — and entering the physical world. Robotics is quietly becoming the next global ecosystem. Open-source foundation models. End-to-end learning. Industrial-grade reliability. And radically new ways of building robotic bodies. This meetup is special because we’re not just talking theory. We’re bringing together speakers from: • **Hugging Face** — powering one of the world’s leading open AI ecosystems, now expanding into open-source robotics • **mimic robotics** — building scalable, real-world robotic manipulation systems for industrial deployment • **Allonic** — reinventing how robotic bodies are manufactured through its 3D Tissue Braiding technology, recently raised €6M in pre-seed funding — the largest hardware pre-seed round in Hungary to date This event is powered by **ShareTech Foundation** — a non-profit initiative building bridges between frontier technology, industry, and the European tech ecosystem. This event venue is provided by **Tulip Interfaces** a manufacturing app platform empowering frontline teams with digital tools and real-time data. *** ** Date & Time:** March 5. 2026, 17:30 ** Location:** Tulip Interfaces Office - Budapest, Köztelek u. 6, 1092 *** ** The Talks** *** **Dana Aubakirova** ML Research Engineer — Hugging Face **Open-Source Robotics: Bringing Foundation Models to Real Robots** From Vision–Language–Action models to real robotic deployment. Dana will walk us through: * How foundation models are reshaping robotics * Multimodal pretraining and scaling trends * SmolVLA and the LeRobot open-source ecosystem * Community-driven robot data collection * What still blocks large-scale embodied AI If you care about open-source AI moving into the physical world — this one’s for you. *** **Benedek Forrai** Co-Founder & Lead Roboticist — mimic robotics **Systems as Moat — Bringing Reliability into End-to-End Learning** End-to-end learning is exciting. Industrial reliability is harder. Benedek shares: * VLA → VAM evolution * Scaling pretraining without massive robot datasets * Architectural bottlenecks in current pipelines * Why system design becomes the true competitive moat This is where research meets customer-grade deployment. *** **Benedek Tasi** Founder & CEO — Allonic **Complexity in Robotic Bodies — And Making Them Simple Enough for Mass Production** As robot intelligence scales, hardware complexity explodes. Allonic introduces **3D Tissue Braiding** — a radically new way of “growing” robotic bodies in a single integrated process. We’ll explore: * Bio-inspired robotic connective structures * Reducing hundreds of parts into unified builds * Manufacturing scalability for the next robotics wave This is how you build robots that can actually scale. *** ** Agenda** 17:30 — Arrival & welcome 18:00 — Talks 20:00 — Community networking 21:00 — Wrap-up ** Why You Should Come** Because robotics is no longer sci-fi.

This is a **paid** and **Women only** event! In honor of International ***Women’s Day (8th of March)***, we celebrate not only strength and success, but also resilience — the quiet, powerful kind that lives in every woman’s story. Every scar, every lesson, and every woman who continues to rise — stronger, wiser, and beautifully whole. ***Kintsugi*** dates back to the 15th century and means “joining with gold” in Japanese. A broken object (ceramic) is glued together with lacquer and then the seams are covered with gold. Wabi Sabi, related to Kintsugi, is the philosophy of embracing our flaws and life’s fragility. During the workshop, we will go through the various processes of Kintsugi – breaking, grinding, joining, gluing, gilding – thereby we will also see our own vulnerability on the path to becoming whole. **Leading the workshop:** Jennifer Nyerki (Art and Sociotherapist) **Date:** Saturday 7 March 2026 - 09:30-13:30 **Location:** 7th district **Fee:** 15,000 HUF via bank transfer only! **No drop-ins!** **To register, send an email to thearttofreedom@gmail.com** **What is art therapy?** Art therapy is a self-development tool that uses creative expression for emotional awareness and personal growth. The field of Art Therapy is diverse, with each branch having its own area of expertise - visual arts, movement, dance, music, and drama..etc The focus is not on the final artwork, but on the journey and what it reveals. Important: This is not an art workshop or an art course. The workshop does not qualify and does not replace psychotherapy but is a meaningful addition to the self discovery journey. Furthermore, it is not recommended for those undergoing neurological or psychiatric treatment. **What to expect:** \- no prior artistic skills or experience required \- express and explore emotions freely \- process over outcome \- experience a supportive and inspiring environment\, the collective energy of the group can deepen personal reflection and foster a sense of belonging **Cancellation Policy:** \- Full refund for cancellations made more than 7 days before the workshop\. \- 50% refund for cancellations made within 7 days of the workshop\. \- Registrations may be transferred to another person with prior notice\. \- No refunds for no\-shows\. \- Full refund if rescheduled/cancelled due to the organiser\.

This is a free, in person meeting. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

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.

Tired of chronic pain that keeps coming back? Let’s try a different approach. If you’ve tried everything for pain without long-term success, I offer RAPID Neurofascial Reset and Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT).

The emotional pain from past bad experiences easily lingers in the present, making it hard to enjoy life and create your future. Even when you think you've moved on, the negative emotions can be triggered, sending you back into the pain of that experience. And we are talking about pain; emotions such as grief, depression, anxiety, fear (or terror), boiling anger, simmering resentment, feelings of shame, blaming and regret can leave you incapacitated to a greater or lesser degree. In this local event we will be discussing the reasons why these past bad experiences have the power to affect you long after they occurred. We'll go over why the emotional pain can be so strong. We'll also discuss some simple solutions to overcome your emotional pain and be free to fully enjoy your life again. Examples of painful experiences include: * A broken relationship or divorce. * Death or loss of a loved one. * Death of a pet. * A sudden shock or bad news. * A betrayal. * Being part of an abusive relationship. * A bad injustice. * Loss of a job, position or business. * A grave illness or injury. The negative emotions from these experiences don't just go away on their own. But the good news is there is a way to clear them out of your way.
