I chanced upon the website for the "HKU Centre of Buddhist Studies 10th Anniversary International Conference", the subject being: Buddhist Meditative Praxis: Traditional Teachings & Modern Application. The abstract for the papers presented can be found here: http://www.buddhism.hku.hk/conference/abstract.pdf
They are all fascinating subjects. Any one knows how I may obtain or buy these papers?

2013 HKU Conference: Buddhist Meditative Praxis
"Men must want to do things out of their own innermost drives. People, not commercial organizations or chains of command, are what make great civilizations work. Every civilization depends upon the quality of the individuals it produces. If you over-organize humans, over-legalize them, suppress their urge to greatness - they cannot work and their civilization collapses."

Try the faculty office.
Sometimes conferences publish presented papers as " Proceedings of the..... Conference.
Failing that an email to each participant requesting a transcript sometimes reaps rewards.
Many academics are happy to share their past conference papers unless they have plans for future formal publication elsewhere.
Mark Williams ( Oxford) paper appears to be a summation of current work in progress lots more from Mark on Mindfulness here...

Hope that helps.

Thanks Osho. I will try the faculty office, and if failing that, will proceed to stalk the participants.
