Steve Jobs, the charismatic Apple
Founder and CEO. Steve Job’s success with
Apple iPod, iPhone and iPad; are buzzing in
tech world.
But just as Jobs is known for his addresses
at Apple product launches, his historic Stanford
speech and his passion for innovation and
curve jumping thinking, something which turned
Apple from bankruptcy to the world’s biggest
tech company; he’s also known for his views
and comments about another revolutionary,
the Microsoft Founder Bill gates.
From time to time, Steve Jobs - once a Hare
Rama Hare Rama (ISKCon) Sunday meal hungry
college dropout; has reflected upon his thoughts
about Microsoft founder Bill Gates; something
which many think shed a great deal of light
on Jobs’ past and pre-Apple days.
In one such occasion, reports WSJ, Jobs told
New York Times in a 1997 interview referring
to Gates:
"I wish him the best, I really do. I just
think he and Microsoft are a bit narrow. He'd
be a broader guy if he had dropped acid once
or gone off to an ashram when he was younger,"
According to people who have followed Jobs’
life closely, he didn’t say the above, just
for the sake of saying. Jobs’ actually recommended
Gates the mantra, which he did when he was
young and continued trying till now.
Deeply influenced by the Indian spiritualism
in 70s; Steve Jobs born February 24, 1955,
visited India in 1974 as a hippie (the same
hippie connection which makes many connect
Steve with untidiness even now) for what he
calls “spiritual retreat” and a philosophical
quest. The move many psychologists, link to
Jobs being adopted by foster parents right
after birth; but later his biological parents(Steve
jobs born as Steven Paul Jobs to an American
mother and a Syrian father in San Francisco,
California) happened to tie the knot and gave
birth to and raised a child, Jobs’ biological
sister. how he funded his India journey, by
taking a job at Atari.
While at Cupertino Junior High School and
Homestead High School in Cupertino, California,
Steve, who always had inclination towards
computers, used to attend after-school lectures
at the Hewlett-Packard Company. After his
graduation from high school in 1972, Jobs
enrolled in Reed College in Portland, Oregon,
but dropped out after first semester (first
three months). Instead he enrolled himself
in non degree Calligraphy (beautiful handwriting)
classes; and stayed with friends in their
hostel room. Monet skint, as he had ditched
college degree, jobs used to audit classes
at Reed, returned Coke bottles for food money,
and didn’t refrain from getting weekly free
meals at the local “Hare Krishna” temple (this
is the Sunday free meal connection at Hare
Rama Temple).
Jobs returned to California in 1974; and took
a technician job at popular video games manufacturer
Atari, primarily to save money for visiting
India in search of spiritual enlightenment.
Spending time there as a hippie in quest of
eternal knowledge (experimented with psychedelics,
calling his “acid” or Lysergic acid diethylamide
experiences "), Jobs returned from India in
the same year as a “Buddhist”; if not in practice
but at least in appearance.
In 1976, Jobs founded Apple along with his
college friend Steve Woznaik; with whom he
used to attend after school Hewlett-Packard
Company classes as well. According to Steve,
he got the inspiration to found Apple, during
his stay in India. In India, Steve visited
Kainchi Ashram, in Nainital,
in the state of Uttarakhand (the Ashram of
Baba Neem Karoli or Baba Neeb Karori, considered
a reincarnation of Lord Hanuman, a monkey
God in Hinduism); and it’s where he is believed
to have got the vision to create Apple.
