This week’s Tricycle Talk features Lawrence Levy, co-founder of the Juniper school. Levy, former chief financial officer at Pixar, took an early retirement to focus onĀ  Juniper’s work of rendering traditional Gelug teachings in modern idiom. A close friend of Steve Jobs, Levy enlisted the support of Apple’s legendary founder in developing the Juniper school’s aesthetic and presentation.

JuniperĀ  is led by Segyu Rinpoche, whom Tricycle interviewed earlier this year. For information on Juniper’s upcoming retreat, click here.
