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.

**🚀 Join our free Budapest Data Science Meetup!** In our first session, Tamás Németh from DataHub will explore the evolution of data catalogs into "Metadata Control Planes," explaining how authoritative context is the secret sauce for preventing "confident but wrong" AI agents. Then, Daniel Darabos, CTO of LynxKite will take us into the world of biotech, demonstrating how GPU-accelerated screening is fast-tracking drug discovery by targeting G-protein coupled receptors with unprecedented speed. **📅 Date & venue:** * **26 March 2026, Thursday, from 6 pm** * **Shapr3D Office 1054 Budapest, Akadémia u. 6. · Budapest** **Please note that the event's official language is English!

Building Datahub, the open-source metadata catalog. Previously led the data-engineering team at Prezi and worked on a platform to fulfill all of the analytical needs at scale. Tamas is also a committer in the Apache Gobblin project. Abstract: Traditional catalogs are no longer sufficient for today’s complex, decentralized landscapes. This session explores their transformation into Metadata Control Planes, the operational “central nervous system” for enterprise information. As AI agents replace humans as primary consumers, this infrastructure becomes the critical bedrock for Context Engineering. Unlike people, these autonomous systems act directly on the information they find without seeking clarification; they require authoritative context to avoid “confident but wrong” outcomes. We will demonstrate how to repurpose your existing lineage, quality signals, and business glossaries to provide the provenance and semantic clarity these models crave. Discover how to evolve a passive inventory into a high-performance engine for reliable, enterprise-grade AI. **Drug discovery with AI: Targeting G-protein coupled receptors with GPU-accelerated screening** Abstract: GPCRs are an important but difficult drug target. The receptor we are focusing on, called Mas, has an important role in regulating the cardiovascular system and muscle growth. A natural compound that activates Mas is in phase 3 trials for treating old-age muscle loss (sarcopenia). As it's based on a plant extract, only a limited supply can be produced. The search is on for a highly efficient, safe, synthetic alternative! Join us to learn more about our GPU-accelerated solution for scoring billions of potential drug molecules with a variety of models. \*\*[Daniel Darabos ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/darabos/)\*\*is the CTO of **[LynxKite](https://www.linkedin.com/company/lynxkite/)**.

“Resentment is like drinking poison and then hoping it will kill your enemies.” ― Nelson Mandela **(In english!)** Throughout history, human societies have wrestled with division. When identity hardens into polarization, coexistence becomes fragile. Differences can escalate into civil conflict, deepening distrust and resentment that often persist for generations. Yet history also offers rare examples of a different path: moments when cycles of hatred did not spiral into further violence, but instead turned toward reconciliation. In this session we will explore **Ubuntu** — the African ethical philosophy that shaped the moral framework of leaders such as Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu. Ubuntu — “I am because we are” — proposes that identity is not purely individual but relational. Even those we oppose remain part of our shared collective. This insight may be the hidden condition behind successful reconciliations. Beyond South Africa’s transition from apartheid, we can examine other cases of reconciliation: the American post–Civil War, the reconciliation between France and Germany, Japan’s postwar transformation, and the peace process in Northern Ireland. **Introduction of guests (15 minutes)** We start with a short introduction of the guests. **Kérdések (1 óra 45 perc)** 1. According to Ubuntu why is hope better than optimism? 2. Are we living in a time of self-respect? 3. Can Ubuntu be applied to someone who opposes Ubuntu? 4. What happens when “we” includes people who reject your values? 5. How does Ubuntu work when conflict is on-going? 6. Can the strength of the collective sometimes go the wrong direction? How to avoid that? 7. Have you put yourself in the shoes of someone you deeply reject? 8. How can we compare the european reconciliation with the South African or North-Irish reconciliations? 9. What is more important for reconciliation: leadership or strong institutions? 10. Can forgiveness be compatible with justice all the time? Is there a point where forgiveness becomes injustice? 11. Why is truth so important in reconciliation? 12. Can reconciliation hold when material inequality persists? 13. Can ubuntu help to undo polarization? 14. How can we apply ubuntu to social media? 15. Is ubuntu a way of individual-to-social maturity? 16. Is polarization a symptom of moral seriousness — or moral immaturity? 17. Is polarization driven more by inequality or by identity? **RSVP:** Please confirm your attendance here on Meetup to save your space and if you cannot assist, yield your space to another person in the waiting list. We welcome donations from 400 HUF to keep the costs of the meetup (If Paypal doesnt work, dont worry, you can donate on location with cash, Revolut, or transfer)

Hello everyone, Welcome to the Monthly Book Club — the discussion edition of the Budapest Silent Book Club for those who enjoy reading the same book and sharing thoughts together. This March, we’ll be reading *The Body Keeps the Score* by Bessel van der Kolk.

It’s a fascinating, sometimes intense read that opens the door to deep conversations about psychology, resilience, and the ways our experiences shape us. 🕕 Time: 18:00–20:00 – Group discussion about the book (no silent reading hour this time) 📍 Location: Altair (it’s just a plain-looking door with a sign on it) I’ll bring a few discussion prompts, but everyone’s thoughts are welcome.

Join us as we get together for an Arthouse Movie Friday event to see the A24 dark comedy /romance / psychological-thriller, THE DRAMA! The film stars Zendaya and Robert Pattinson as a happily engaged couple whose relationship is challenged when one discovers unsettling truths about the other. Here are details, a trailer and our plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: The film follows a happily engaged couple whose relationship is put to the test when an unexpected turn sends their wedding week off the rails. The film comes from A24, is written/directed by Kristoffer Borgli stars Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Mamoudou Athie, Alana Haim, Hailey Gates and Zoë Winters. QUICK WORD OF WARNING: The film hasn’t screened for critics yet and most of the details are being kept tightly under wraps. But, early buzz (possibly promotional) says the film is a brilliant psychological thriller/romance but also provocative, twisty and some contains occasional uncomfortable viewing! I love the cast and trailer, so look forward to seeing for ourselves! ZENDAYA-PATTINSON TRIFECTA CHALLENGE: Robert Pattinson and Zendaya will star in THREE movies together this year, including THE DRAMA, Christopher Nolan’s THE ODYSSEY this Summer and Denis Villeneuve’s DUNE: PART THREE at Christmas! TRAILER: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zmKcUa4Xxk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zmKcUa4Xxk) PLAN: We’ll plan for 7pm-ish showing and will meet in the lobby area about 30 minutes before showtime! Advance ticket purchase not required for this theater but early arrival is advised. Possibly post-movie get-together at the nearby Rusty Bucket! Complete details will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer. Take care and look forward to seeing you there, Dan

TBA- We will do lunch before the play too! Tickets are on sale now only $20.

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!

. 🎬 Movie Night You, Me & Tuscany Join us for a cinematic escape to the sun-drenched vineyards and romantic landscapes of Italy as we gather to watch You, Me & Tuscany, the new feel-good romantic comedy starring Halle Bailey and Regé‑Jean Page.

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! Tonight's a special one; this is "Long form" night! Most nights here at Improv Meetup, we play "short form" games, where the host has established rules that the players must adhere to. These scenes frequently do not tell a connected story and are focused on following those rules; games such as "Alphabet Game" where every next sentence needs to start with the next letter of the alphabet, or "Interrogation" where it's a guessing game. Tonight is focused on "long form", where we will see groups of people come up and do a sort of improvised play. There may be rules to the structure itself to adhere to, or it may be more free form, but doing this allows players to establish a shared world, and to establish characters and callbacks. While your average game may last 2-3 minutes, a long form set will last much longer, and have 4+ people involved. This may be a more complicated night, but we will make sure you feel supported to try this out. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!
