"Your lecture is called 'From Satori to Silicon Valley,'" he explained.

“你的讲座叫做‘从禅悟到硅谷’，”他解释道。

Will they? There is no guarantee, but knowing a little history might help. And having some idea of where satori is can't hurt.

可是他们能吗？这可不一定，但了解一点历史或许会有所帮助。再了解一点“禅悟”是哪里大概也没什么害处。

I have met academic specialists who insist that Alan Watts, who did so much to popularize Zen, did not grasp the authentic meaning of satori.

我曾经见过一些学术专家，坚称尽管Alan Watts为推广禅宗贡献良多，却并没有真正理解禅悟的本意。
