It's time for another of the always fabulous Mind and Life Conferences, this one on Craving, Desire, and Addiction.

MIND AND LIFE 2013 – XXVII: CRAVING, DESIRE, AND ADDICTION

with His Holiness the Dalai Lama
Dharamsala, Himachal Pradesh, India – October 28 – November 1, 2013

The conference focuses its attention on craving, desire, and addiction, as these are among the most pressing causes of human suffering. By bringing contemplative practitioners and scholars from Buddhist and Christian traditions together with a broad array of scientific researchers in the fields of desire and addiction, hopefully new understandings will arise that may ultimately lead to improved treatment of the root causes of craving and its many manifestations.

Here are the list and associations of this year's participants:
