Consciousness

✨**The Awakening of Consciousness** ✨ 🗓 Wednesday\, April 29\, 2026 \| 18:30 📍 Locus Workspace (Big Meeting Room) Slezská 857/45, 130 00 Prague Have you ever wondered why we forget so many things — conversations, appointments, even what we ate yesterday? Why do we sometimes feel like we are going through life on autopilot? According to Gnosis, the answer is simple: our Consciousness is asleep. In this session we will explore: • What is Consciousness — and what it is NOT • Why 97% of our inner life is subconscious • The 4 States of Consciousness (from deep sleep to full awakening) • Identification & Fascination — the hidden causes of our inner sleep • Self-Remembering: the S.O.L. Key (Subject, Object, Location) • Practical tools to start awakening here and now No previous knowledge required — just an open heart and mind. 🙏 Organized by Gnosis Samael Lakshmi Prague Free entry — voluntary contributions are warmly welcomed. 🌿 For questions: gnosiserzgebirge@gmail.com

Potkáme se a dáme si dva kratší talky, které mají za úkol hlavně otevřít diskuzi. Tohle není přednáška ve škole – je to prostor pro zvídavce, kteří chtějí sdílet, ptát se a posouvat se dál. Vezmi s sebou nápady, otázky nebo jen chuť potkat další lidi, kteří přemýšlejí podobně. talks: 🎤 Ondrej Hatala - Open Code a Kimaki 🎤 Jakub Karlec - Design system sync (figma**↔**code) \-\-\- Přijdte od 17h si dát večeři, v 18h začne první přednáška v 19h druhá **Ondrej Hatala - Open Code a Kimaki** nadšený objaviteľ stále nových vecí, ktorým ešte celkom nerozumie. O to radšej o nich však rozpráva. OpenCode a Kimaki – Skúšali ste sa už rozprávať so svojím terminálom? Ukážeme si open-source BYOM stack („bring your own model“) postavený na OpenCode a Kimaki. \-\-\- **Jakub Karlec - Design system sync (figma↔code)** Jakub je spolumajitel designového studia 2FRESH. Věří, že dobrý design mění svět k lepšímu. Přes dvacet let pracoval jako vývojář a designér pro startupy i firmy z Fortune 500. V posledních letech má na starosti obchod, do kterého se snaží promítat principy design thinking. Na open-source projektu http://cal.com testuju, jestli je možné udržet design systém ve Figmě a v kódu skutečně 1:1. Postavil jsem sadu Claude Code skills, které díky Figma Console MCP a JSON mezivrstvě synchronizují tokeny, properties i komponenty. Z chyb, které agent dělá, se snažím postupně vytvářet nová pravidla, aby se celý systém průběžně zlepšoval. Je to dost bolestivý proces :-) \-\-\- Vibecoders vítáni :huggin-face: MCP EVERYWHERE \-\-\-

We are a group of runners who meet most weeks for a run around the beautiful Vltava River's edge. You can bring your running shoes straight from the office/home office if you don't have time to stop at home. There will be a place to put your bags in the Cafe. We will run about 9 km along the river and have a drink afterwards. Paces vary! We will meet in the square near Kavarna Liberal (Hermanova 6), near the Vltavska metro/tram stop at 6:30 on Wednesday. See you there!

My dear fellow childfree ladies, let's meet for drinks and chat, this time at Roesel bar in Malá Strana.

Welcome to the international Café Philo in Prague. We meet every first Saturday of the month in the cosy [Café Millème](https://store11473398.ecwid.com) in the center of Prague. We choose a participant randomly, by lottery, who then has the privilege to determine the topic of our discussion. We will reflect, ponder and exchange arguments until our brains are on fire. Philosophy isn't just something for universities, it is a way to open your mind to new thoughts and questions. No application is necessary, there is no entrance fee and there are no prerequisites for participating, except curiosity and respect for other people. We meet from 17:15 until 18:45 to follow together the white rabbit into the wonderland of philosophy... More information about me under this [link](https://sophonautik.ch/english/).

Open philosophical discussion, thinking together about a topic in a philosophical way. The topic will be chosen by the participants at the beginning of the event. No application, no entrance fee.

Follow the white rabbit into the wonderland of philosophy... You find informations about me and the event [here](https://sophonautik.ch/english/). Je nach Gruppe kann die Veranstaltung auch auf [Deutsch](https://sophonautik.ch/deutsch/) abgehalten werden.

We are meeting at Stromovka Park, near Rudolfov rybník. Bring something to sit on, pets are also welcome! We’ll start with an opening circle, short group meditation and then move into sharing and discussion.

When judging morality, should we prioritize **intentions/duty** or **outcomes/results**? It introduces two influential philosophers as representatives of these approaches. * **Immanuel Kant (deontology):** An action is moral when it is done from **duty** and follows rational, universal principles (the **categorical imperative**). Certain acts—like lying—are wrong regardless of the consequences; you can’t do a wrong thing for a right reason. * **John Stuart Mill (utilitarian consequentialism):** The morality of an action is determined by its **effects**, specifically how much **happiness/well-being** it produces. Mill argues that some pleasures are “higher” than others, and that good intentions don’t redeem harmful outcomes. ## Discussion Questions 1. **The lying dilemma:** A murderer comes to your door and asks if your friend is hiding inside. Kant would say you must not lie. 2. **Can good intentions rescue a bad outcome?** 3. **The organ harvest problem:** A surgeon has five patients dying of organ failure and one healthy patient in for a checkup. Killing the one to harvest organs would save five lives, and the math works out for the utilitarian. Why does this feel so deeply wrong? Is that feeling a point in Kant's favor, or just a bias we should overcome? 4. **Do rules need exceptions?** Kant insists moral rules must be universal, with no exceptions. But most of us can imagine extreme scenarios where any rule seems like it should bend. Does the need for exceptions fatally undermine deontology, or is the strength of the system precisely that it refuses to bend? 5. **Who gets to calculate the consequences?** Utilitarianism asks us to maximize good outcomes, but we're notoriously bad at predicting consequences. If we can't reliably know the results of our actions, is it practical to base our entire moral system on outcomes? Does this uncertainty push us back toward rules and principles? 6. **Everyday morality:** Think about a real moral decision you've made recently, even a small one. Did you reason more like a Kantian (what's the right thing to do in principle?) or more like a utilitarian (what will produce the best result?)? Do most people naturally lean one way? 7. **Justice vs. the greater good:** A town can prevent a deadly plague by sacrificing one innocent person. The greater good is clearly served. But is it just? Can an action be morally right and deeply unjust at the same time? 8. **The big synthesis question:** Are these two systems actually opposed, or do they often arrive at the same answers by different paths? Is it possible that we need both: rules to guide us in the moment and consequences to evaluate systems and policies over time?

**Caller: Richard Ades** **Band: The McKenzies** **Clinton Heights Lutheran Church** **15 Clinton Heights Ave, Columbus, OH 43202** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle.

Main Library, Meeting Room 2B Join us for a welcoming evening of reflection, gentle music, and meaningful conversation.
