Yeats and Zen and a Horseman Passing By Epitaph Lecture by David O’Grady

A Buddhist Source for W. B. Yeats’ Epitaph Lecture

‘Cast a cold Eye
On Life, on Death.
Horseman, pass by!’

David O’Grady has researched the Buddhist link to Yeats’ Epitaph, and the 13th Century Zen Buddhist text Yeats discovered and took inspiration from, shortly before his death. This lecture explores the enlightenment Yeats attained prior to his death and was delivered at the International Yeats Society Symposium in Barcelona in December 2016. All Welcome.
