 Jobs did in fact find a teacher right in his own neighborhood.

事实上,乔布斯确实在他洛斯阿尔托的家附近找到了一个导师。
Shunryu Suzuki, who wrote Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind and ran the San Francisco Zen Center,
《禅者的初心》一书的作者铃木俊隆管理着旧金山禅宗中心,
used to come to Los Altos every Wednesday evening to lecture and meditate1 with a small group of followers3.
他每周三晚上会去那里开讲座,并和一小群追随者一起冥想。
After a while he asked his assistant, Kobun Chino Otogawa, to open a full-time4 center there.
一段时间之后,乔布斯和其他人觉得不够,于是铃木让自己的助手乙川弘文(Kobun Chino)开办一家全天候开放的禅宗中心。
Jobs became a faithful follower2, along with his occasional girlfriend, Chrisann Brennan,
乔布斯和女友克里斯安·布伦南,
and Daniel Kottke and Elizabeth Holmes.
以及丹尼尔·科特基和伊丽莎白·霍姆斯都成了忠实的追随者。
He also began to go by himself on retreats to the Tassajara Zen Center,
他还开始一个人去塔萨加拉禅宗中心(Tassajam Zen Center)修行,
a monastery5 near Carmel where Kobun also taught.
这所寺庙靠近卡梅尔,是乙川弘文的另一处教学点。
Kottke found Kobun amusing. "His English was atrocious," he recalled.
科特基觉得乙川弘文很有趣。“他的英语非常糟糕,”他回忆说,
"He would speak in a kind of haiku, with poetic6, suggestive phrases.
“他说话就像是在吟诵俳句,话语极富启发性。
We would sit and listen to him, and half the time we had no idea what he was going on about.
我们就坐在那儿听他讲,有一半的时间我们根本不知道他在说什么。
I took the whole thing as a kind of lighthearted interlude." Holmes was more into the scene.
我把这个看做轻松的插曲。”他的女朋友霍姆斯则更加投入。
"We would go to Kobun's meditations8, sit on zafu cushions, and he would sit on a dais," she said.
“我们会去参加乙川弘文的冥想,我们坐在蒲团上,他坐在讲台上,”她说,
"We learned how to tune9 out distractions10. It was a magical thing.
“我们学会了怎样不理会外界的打扰。这是很神奇的一件事。
One evening we were meditating11 with Kobun when it was raining,
有一天晚上,我们在和乙川弘文一起冥想,这时外面下起了雨,
and he taught us how to use ambient sounds to bring us back to focus on our meditation7."
他就教我们怎样利用环境声音让自己集中注意力继续冥想。”
As for Jobs, his devotion was intense.
而乔布斯的投入是全身心的。
"He became really serious and self-important and just generally unbearable," according to Kottke.
“他变得非常严肃,妄自尊大,让人难以忍受”。科特基说。
He began meeting with Kobun almost daily, and every few months they went on retreats together to meditate.
乔布斯开始每天都和乙川弘文见面,每几个月都会一起静修、冥想。
"I ended up spending as much time as I could with him," Jobs recalled.
“与乙川弘文的碰面对我来说是一段意义非凡的经历,我后来尽可能多地与他待在一起,”乔布斯回忆说,
"He had a wife who was a nurse at Stanford and two kids.
“他有一个在斯坦福做护士的奏子,还有两个孩子。
She worked the night shift, so I would go over and hang out with him in the evenings.
他妻子常常上晚班,所以我总是晚上去他们家找他。
She would get home about midnight and shoo me away."
她一般会在午夜时分到家,然后把我赶走。”
They sometimes discussed whether Jobs should devote himself fully12 to spiritual pursuits, but Kobun counseled otherwise.
他们有时候会讨论,乔布斯是否应该完全投身到精神追求中,但乙川弘文不赞成这么做。
He assured Jobs that he could keep in touch with his spiritual side while working in a business.
他说乔布斯可以边工作边保持精神修行。
The relationship turned out to be lasting13 and deep;
他们两人的关系是深厚的,也是持久的:
seventeen years later Kobun would perform Jobs's wedding ceremony.
17年后,乙川弘文主持了乔布斯的婚礼。
Jobs's compulsive search for self-awareness also led him to undergo primal14 scream therapy,
乔布斯对自我意识的疯狂追寻也导致他开始尝试原始尖叫疗法,
which had recently been developed and popularized by a Los Angeles psychotherapist named Arthur Janov.
这一疗法由洛杉矶的精神治疗医师亚瑟·亚诺夫(Arthur Janov)发明,当时刚刚开始流行。
It was based on the Freudian theory that psychological problems are caused by the repressed pains of childhood;
这一疗法基于弗洛伊德的理论:心理问题都是由受到压抑的儿童时期的痛苦造成的。
Janov argued that they could be resolved by resuffering these primal moments while fully expressing the pain—sometimes in screams.
亚诺夫认为这些问题可以通过再次经历那些痛苦时刻来治愈--通过尖叫来完整地发泄那份痛苦。
