Meditation (English)
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.

Open Heart Meditation with Amrita Rani
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 Amrita Rani.
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 self-based 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

VI. BQG Meetup - Neural Network Deamericanization
Join the next Budapest Quant Group meetup for an exciting presentation by **Gábor Vigh, Director at MQA, Citi**, on cutting-edge machine learning methods in quantitative finance. The event concludes with networking.
**Abstract:** Accurate and efficient calibration of equity volatility surfaces is fundamental to equity derivative pricing. When markets quote only American option prices, this task becomes significantly more complex. We present a neural network-based approach that overcomes these challenges, delivering calibration results while reducing the computational burden of conventional approaches.

* name

Open philosophy session - Tonight you bring the topic!
**(Session in English)**
Tonight, everybody is encouraged to bring one or more questions, ideas, dilemmas, or topics they would like to discuss. We will test them giving each 10 to 15 min, before starting the next - unless the conversation becomes too interesting to switch.
Some example questions:
Can freedom exist without responsibility?
* Is technology making us wiser?
* What makes a good life?
* Is suffering necessary for growth?
* Can morality exist without religion?
* The goal is not to win an argument or reach consensus, but to think, challenge assumptions, and encounter perspectives different from our own.
* Bring a question. We'll take care of the rest
Free session. Get "Karma Points" (discount points) from registering here:

2K to Drink: The Danube Dash!

An afternoon run along the river! I'm visiting Budapest and prepping for the Škofja Loka Four Bridges Night Run in Slovenia on June 20—what better way to train than crossing the breathtaking Danube?

Könyvhét & Könyves Duma | Book Week & Casual Book Chat
**English below ----------------------**
Ez most az első picit kötetlenebb könyves eseményünk lesz. Nem egy konkrét könyvet fogunk kibeszélni, hanem inkább kinézünk az Ünnepi Könyvhétre, és meglátjuk, hogyan működik ez a lazább forma. De aggodalomra semmi ok, a könyves kibeszélő és a duma mindenképpen az esemény része lesz. :)
A menetrend a következő:
**14:00 – Gyülekező és bemutatkozás**
A Vörösmarty-szobor környékén találkozunk. Egy nagyobb társaságot keress, és hogy biztosra menj: a kezemben egy Moby Dick könyv lesz, szóval ha ezt látod valakinél, mi vagyunk azok. Kezdésként tartunk egy gyors bemutatkozást, és átbeszéljük, ki mit szeretne megnézni. Én személy szerint csak körbe akarok nézni és megállni ott, ami épp megtetszik, de ha neked komolyabb terveid vagy konkrét célpontjaid vannak, nyugodtan jelezd, biztosan találsz majd valakit, aki veled tart.
**14:15 – Indulás a standok közé**
14:15-kor elindulunk, szóval kérlek írj az eseményhez, ha késel. Ha nem érsz oda kezdésre, az sem gond, később is simán be tudsz csatlakozni, rugalmas az egész. A megbeszélt irányok mentén kicsit szétválunk kisebb csoportokra, és teszünk egy kört a forgatagban.
**15:00 – Találkozó a Kiskirálylánynál(Vigadó tér)**
A nézelődés után 15:00-kor a Kiskirálylány-szobornál találkozunk újra a Vigadó téren. Várunk egy picit, hogy mindenki odaérjen, majd együtt átgyalogolunk a Városháza Parkba (ez egy laza 10 perces séta lesz).
**15:20 - 17:00 – Könyves duma a Városháza Parkban** Letelepedünk a parkban, ahol picit átbeszéljük a könyvheti élményeket, meg persze jöhet a kötetlen beszélgetés bármilyen könyvről. A hivatalos részét 17:00-kor zárjuk, de utána is ott lehet maradni tovább, ameddig van kedvünk sztorizni.
Gyertek, nézzünk szét, aztán dumáljunk egy jót a parkban!
**English version / International attendees:**
This is our first casual, free-form event. Instead of discussing a specific book, we’ll visit the Festive Book Week together and see how this format works.
* **14:00 – Meetup:** Near the Vörösmarty statue. Look for a bigger group and a guy holding a **Moby Dick** book. We'll do a quick intro and share what everyone wants to check out.
* **14:15 – Heading out:** We'll explore the stands in smaller groups. If you're late, just drop a comment here and catch up with us later.
* **15:00 – Re-grouping:** At the Little Princess Statue (Kiskirálylány) at Vigadó Square, followed by a 10-minute walk to Városháza Park.
* **15:20 - 17:00 – Book Chat:** We'll settle down in Városháza Park to talk about our Book Week finds and books in general. The official event ends at 17:00, but feel free to stay longer!
> 🌍 **Language note:** Since this is a local event, most attendees will likely speak Hungarian, but the organizers and many of us speak fluent English. Feel free to join us, we are happy to chat in English and make sure you're included!

At the **Women’s Coffee Network**, we offer a non-traditional experience where you don't have to fight for your voice, perfect an elevator pitch, or navigate a room of strangers alone. We created this circle because **we don't believe in the hustle; we believe in the power of a steady anchor.**

* 🎀 If the idea of a meetup with 50 people makes you want to stay home, this circle is for you! We gather in **small, intimate groups** — to meet enough new people to have a deep conversation, but not so many that you feel anxious or overwhelmed.
* 🎀 Whether you are leading a corporation, building a creative empire, or navigating the quiet uncertainty of a career transition, you have a seat at our table. The **diversity of professional backgrounds** makes our circle special with shared wisdom.
* 🎀 Our **soft-flow dialogue** ensures that no bravery is required to be heard. You don’t have to be the loudest in the room to be the most impactful. Here, your silence is respected, and your voice is gently invited.

✨ **WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?**
FTST is an out-of-the-box **social experience** where strangers come together for an afternoon of meaningful, fun, and deep conversation. It’s also a different & cool way of meeting new people by getting a bit out of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk!
Join us for **games**, **talks**, and **connections** with **friends you haven’t met yet**. Join if you get annoyed after being asked what you do, where you are from, and how long you've been in Budapest every single time you meet someone. If you feel that there are better questions in life, this is the place for you.
✨ **HOW DOES IT WORK?**
We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few light-hearted group games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups and start with the conversation rounds (with 3-4 people). We'll have awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. You'll be guided by an experienced host (Keely, you'll love her!) who'll make sure everything goes smoothly.

**✨ WHAT THEY SAY**
“This is the kind of activity **humanity needs every weekend**. Thank you for all.”
*\- Sonya*
“F\*ck the Small Talk changes the narrative from *"Where are you from?"* to *"When was the last time you laughed uncontrollably?"* and I think **that's beautiful.**”
\- Monika
"It’s a **wonderful** **experience**, it’s like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe you’ll never see those kids again. But that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other."

**✨ FAQ**
**• Can I come alone?**
Of course, everyone does!
**• Can I be late?**
Please don't! Late arrivals will disrupt the floooooooow.
**• I signed up but never got an invite. Why?**
We usually get a high volume of sign-ups, yet we like keeping it cozy & only invite around 30 people. Please try again next time if you do not receive an invite - no hard feelings
**• Is this a networking or dating event?**
Nope! Think of us as the *anti-networking* and *anti-speed dating* event. There’s no pressure, no pitches, and no cringy icebreakers. Instead, we create spaces where strangers can connect through fun & meaningful conversations. It’s all about authentic connection, no business cards or romantic expectations required. (doesn’t mean it *can’t* happen, it’s just not the intention!)

Smart Search + AI: An Outcome-Driven Journey from IDP to a Suite of AI
Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans.
We created Smart Search, the world’s largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping what’s possible. Since then, we’ve built a suite of AI‑driven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomes—accelerating benefits decisions for our Nation’s Veterans.
Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcome‑driven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served.
This is a follow up to the AWS re:Invent 2023 "Intelligent Document Processing with Gen AI for Public Sector" presentation.

Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!
Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you were quoted in *Truth in Comedy*, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**!
The idea behind improvised comedy is to create entire scenes from scratch. A suggestion is taken from the audience and laughter is built on the spot. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway, Make Some Noise,* or *Wild 'n Out*; it can also be done in a longer way, to tell a complicated story, like *TJ & Dave*.
Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and FREE!) weekly comedy event, brings the games for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Afterward, many members will hang out in *Gresso's* itself and get to know each other. Not only is this a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, your public speaking, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and build relationships that will last a lifetime, and you do that while laughing your butt off!
Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "*Yes, And*" that you'll have a blast!

TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1-pfiVMKAs
PLAN: Please purchase your ticket for the 7:00pm showing and meet in the lobby area between 6:40 and 6:50pm!
