Zazen Meditation + Dharma talk or Kinhin
The meaning of the word zen is meditation, zazen means sitting meditation. In zazen practice we begin to know ourselves, and to go beyond the limits of our personal ego. Within our tradition zazen is referred to as shikantaza, not doing, letting go of thoughts, dropping off body and mind. This sitting meditation is the focus of our practice. Language limits our ability to communicate the true nature of zen; it is something that is better understood
through practice. We are open to everyone interested in learning about zen.
Intro workshop for newcomers is available at 5.30pm each Sunday. The dojo is a sacred place and it is important to be considerate of everyone. We have many people that travel to practise together once a week or once a month. So for that reason it is really essential that we all know the structure of the sitting practise (when to sit, how to do Kinhin, the different bell sounds and their meaning etc), to ensure a silent, safe and meaningful meditation. And it's also great to meet everyone before the sitting practise. And answer any questions you may have.
We have zafus and zabutons (mats and cushions) for all to sit on. Chairs are available too.
Comfortable clothing for sitting, black or neutral tones best.
We greatly appreciate a donation of €5 to cover costs if it's possible for you.
Please arrive 10min before start so 6ish (if you're not doing the intro workshop).
You are very welcome to our dojo!

Sound healing, Meditation & Connection in Dublin 12
THIS SESSION IS FULL NOW
Sunday 5th of July give yourself the gift of sound & stillness✨💜
This immersive sound journey is a sacred space to pause, reflect, and consciously set intentions.
Small group sessions are held in my home Sanctuary in Dublin 12.
This is a payed session a 30 euros energy exchange applies, to confirm your attendance you must email to info@soundsouljourney.com and a 10 euros deposit must be payed
A Sound Journey is a deeply restorative experience designed to harmonize your energy, promote relaxation, and facilitate healing.
What to Expect in the Session:
Gentle Pranayama (Breathwork) – We begin with simple breathing exercises to open the energy channels (nadis) in the body, preparing you to receive the benefits of sound and Reiki. This helps calm the nervous system and cultivate a state of presence.
Guided Meditation with Sound & Vibrations – As you settle into relaxation, you will be guided through a meditation accompanied by the soothing tones of Tibetan bowls. Their vibrations help bring balance to your energy centers (chakras) and deepen your meditative state
Himalayan Bowl Healing – the sound healer will use Himalayan bowls near or on the body, allowing the vibrations and specific frequencies to work at a cellular level restoring balance to you fisical, emotional and mental levels
Closing Sound Bath – The session concludes with an immersive sound bath, where a combination of instruments—such as Tibetan bowls, chimes, gongs, drums ...—create a soothing soundscape, allowing your mind and body to fully integrate the healing experience.
By the end of the session we'll enjoy a cup of yogi tea, time to share, connect and integrate the practice.
No previous experience is needed, just bring your intention and I'll provide everything else
love & light

We meet at lunch each week and each meeting follows a fairly organized agenda. First all participants pass their business cards around. Then each member and guest is invited to give a one-minute overview of their company and what is a perfect referral for the week. We always have a 10 minute presentation from one of the members about their business in more detail. And finally we pass referrals. You're welcome to visit. Nobody is ever put on the spot. Bring plenty of cards!

Melancholia
Be prepared for an entirely different type of sci-fi movie!
Unofficially, the second movie in director Lars von Trier's "Depression Trilogy," 2011 Melancholia depicts the events that occur before a rogue planet is about to collide with the earth. Considered by many to be a masterpiece, the film was included in BFI's 2022 Sight and Sound Poll of the greatest movies of all time.
It is available at the library as well as on Kanopy.

**A Few Notes:**
✅ This is an **in-person event**
✅ **RSVP does not guarantee a seat** – A confirmation email will be sent one day before the event.
**TALK ABSTRACT:**
Docker Compose and Kubernetes are two of the most popular tools for running containerized applications. Their feature lists are similar. Architects and senior developers need to know how their different paradigms lead to unexpectedly different experiences in production.
