The following of Steve Jobs
of Zen culture was well known to everybody but very few people know that he was
a Zen Master and he was not just a Zen follower
I know him eternally so I
will tell you something and agree which you will understand during this article.
Steve came to India lived here with Zen masters and he travels way inside Himalyas
and gained the knowledge of Zen and its followings and follows it during his life
and slowly slowly he becomes the master The Zen Master .
Most of us have seen him
during the presentation of his products and the ease with which he gives the presentation
about the products. Let’s see one of his life stories about the firing of him
from his own company. He was fired for a very simple reason that is he was not concentrating
on the sales of the company products and instead he was working with his team.
He had made apple inside apple on some so called weird ideas. The CEO of that
company took other directors and put him in a situation where he couldn’t work
and later fired. He simply and gracefully moved out of the company and for
4-5months took rest and didn’t think anything about Apple. The Point I want to explain
is his simple and easy detachment just like a Zen Master and lived blissfully
and after sometime started a new company we all know the name and the story.
The point is that he could
have legally fought the other director of the company and can come back to
apple but he just remains cool and worked on his own ideas. The Zen following
explain exactly what Steve Jobs practiced during his life. The Zen culture explains
of life and living life coolly in which u simply live and work and do’t take
tension or stress in achieving the goals But parallelly keeps working also but
never let the work stresses you. This is what we should learn from him and that’s
why I call him Zen Master I have not seen him in any picture stressed or any sort.
Everybody has problems in
life and he handles them well coolly and Steve jobs handles then well.
The Zen master is a person
who simply lives blissfully and stays working.
