It is an experience definitely worth a try! Sahaja meditation is a simple, time-honored technique. Meditation is based on connecting with the inner chakras (energy centers) and balancing the subtle body. It helps reduce stress and increase health. It brings better focus and helps us to be more focused and balanced. Sahaja Yoga is scientific and verifiable, because each practitioner can also verify the cause of inner imbalance from his or her own central nervous system (Central Nervous System) and improve it through meditation practice. According to the founder Shri Mataji , this meditation will make you feel a deep sense of harmony, allowing the thoughts to enter into a state of tranquility, stability, but complete awakening. Sahaja Yoga Meditation - the gateway to inner peace, joy and enlightenment! Founder Shri Mataji has been spreading sahaja yoga around the world since 1970 to give en-mass self-realization and teach meditation skills, and all yoga classes and lectures are free of charge. Shri Mataji and we all believe that actualizing self-realization is an innate ability and inherent right for everyone, not, and can not be purchased with money or material. We now have numerous practitioners in over 120 countries around the world. Beginners or those who are already practising meditation are welcome to come to learn this Sahaja Yoga meditation, which is unique and different from other meditation methods.Intermediate level classes (Thursdays & Saturdays) welcome those who have participated in 4 or more classes and are interested in exploring more in-depth and deeper meditation knowledge.

Hi guys, I write a free newsletter about AI, tech, entrepreneurship, and Hong Kong called *Better Read Paul* ([Paul Muller | Substack](https://substack.com/@paulmuller)). While working on it, talking to founders, and seeing how people actually use AI day to day, I kept noticing the same thing: there’s a lot of excitement about AI, but very little practical guidance. At the same time, AI has become a big part of my own daily work. I use it constantly to move faster, think more clearly, and save time. And that’s what pushed me to organize these workshops. The idea is simple: very little theory, and as much hands-on practice as possible. This is not a class where you listen to me talk for two hours, but rather a big conversation where I’ll show you how to use these tools (Claude Code, Nano Banana, ChatGPT, etc.), what you can do with them, and how you can apply them to your own workflow depending on what you do. We will cover: * How to use Claude Code to build a WordPress website and a simple program to learn a language * How to use Claude to rewrite a LinkedIn post or any other social media content * How to use Nano Banana to create a marketing canvas for any brand AI can be incredibly useful, but there are a few things people don’t always tell you. Many tools are paid. The results don’t always live up to expectations. Some tools crash, go down, or need maintenance right when you need them most. And many of them magically produce perfect output without effort. So in the end, the real questions are: what actually slows you down every day at work? Can an AI tool help with that? Is the quality good enough? And is it worth paying for, given the time you save? That’s why I want to run these AI workshops, to help people understand how these tools really work, and to give them the space to experiment and apply AI to their own workflows in a practical and realistic way. Paul

**Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion **Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?** A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad. My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one. Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it? I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction. Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends. No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.
