Short History

After studying philosophy at a number of institutions, I started a three-year long PhD. program in (western) philosophy at the Central European University (CEU) in 2001. My main interest is in Metaphysics and the Theory of Knowledge where I am learning about contemporary metaphysics and contemporary epistemology. One of my possible aims in the study of philosophy is to create a comparative study of transcendentalism (metaphysical idealism) with regard to both eastern and western philosophy. This area has a lot of connections with eastern thought as I see it.  (Zgo there)

I received scientific and traditional education for four years at the Gate of Dharma Buddhist College in Budapest, where I specialized on the study of Buddhist philosophy and Eastern thought. I also studied philosophy of religion specializing on Indian culture and Indian religions. I wrote my thesis on Hindu Tantra. (Zgo there)

- As a teacher of the Gate of Dharma Buddhist College I have been giving lectures since 1995. (Zgo there)

I have studied Cultural Anthropology at the Eötvös Lóránd University of Sciences, Faculty of Arts (ELTE BTK) specializing on the anthropology of religion - regionally concentrating on Middle- and South-Asia, more specifically India, Nepal, and Tibet. Asian religious phenomena lay in the focus of my studies (especially the intersections of Buddhism and Hinduism), therefore my research area is the religious practice and belief of Indian and Nepalese culture. I wrote my thesis on The Cult of Siva. (Zgo there)

- As a lecturer of the Cultural Anthropology Department I gave lectures between 1997-98. (Zgo there)

I have studied English Literature and Linguistics at the Eötvös Lóránd University of Sciences, Faculty of Arts (ELTE BTK) specializing on British literature and British culture. Due to my deep involvement in philosophy I was more attracted to literature and especially mysticism and mystic poetry. Therefore I have specialized on the British mystics, such as John Milton and William Blake. I wrote my thesis on The Visionary Poetry of William Blake. (Zgo there)

I was also teaching English as a foreign language for six years since 1995, mainly at the Danubius Language School between 1995-1999. In 1997 I participated in the post graduate education of teachers, a part of the teacher retraining PHARE-Program. In 1998 I took part in the implementation and testing process of the ECL Language Certificate supervised by the European Community. (Zgo there)
