There are several popular transformational festivals that happen across the globe. Transformational festival that brings people together; cleanses the narrowness or darkness of mind and teaches you to celebrate the life.
Here my list of best 5 festivals around the world.
1) Envision Festival
Although the festival is just 6 years old having started in 2011 but the Envision festival has turned out to be one of the greatest transformational festivals. The great natural location of Costa Rica also plays a great part in building the perfect atmosphere. Exquisite organically grown food and eloquent music, the Envision festival has it all to attract the audiences but what makes it really special is its wondrous workshops that teach people about permaculture and sustainable living. The envision festival teaches the audience to start vouching again for a sustainable future and to dream to make the world a better place for the future generations to come.
2) Lucidity Festival
This transformational festival has gained a huge popularity and it is one of the best ones. For the year 2017, the festival is going to happen in between 7th-9th April and they have dubbed their festival as Eudaimonia, a Greek word that stands for the human flourishing. The Lucidity festival instils the optimism among their audience for a better tomorrow; they provide the hope for a better sustainable future. Attend the Lucidity festival; dance along with fervent tunes of music and start hoping for a sustainable tomorrow.
3) Boom Festival
Being one of the most famous transformational festivals, the Boom festival is held every two years since 1998 at Idanha-a-Nova in Portugal. Other than magnificent food, music and performances; the Boom festival serves as the birthplace for miraculous ideas on clean energy, sustainable living, biodegradable organic products and ecology. Moreover, the festival also celebrates spiritualism and helps the audiences to move past the worldly desires and find peace in the lap of nature.
4) Symbiosis Gathering
There is no doubt that the symbiosis gathering is one of the best transformational festivals but it follows the pattern of Burning man to some extent. Being celebrated in the Woodward Reservoir National Park in California, the Symbiosis gathering teaches an important lesson about the importance as well as conservation of water. Moreover, it also teaches the audience the enriched lifestyle and culture of the indigenous people.
5) Burning Man
Burning man has set the scale on which all other transformational festivals are measured. The festival turns the inhospitable black rock desert into the Mecca of indigenous culture in an instance. The festival takes place between, 28th August to 5th September every year and this is one festival that you cannot afford to miss. What does the festival teach you? Other than the heart touching music and fearless acts of almost 70000 burners, you will learn a great lesson about self-reliance, self-expression and civic responsibilities from the burning man festival.
I like that Burning man was mentioned last (still in the list, but showcases lesser known but similar'ish festivals. I think the 'Transformational' power of these festivals is both a modern phenomena and a rekindling of our ancient need to connect with each other, disconnect from the limitations of our mainstream culture (if only for a little while) and to return reborn with new clarity, restored energy and renewed faith in life and humanity as a whole. An important and overlooked topic that might help us to better understand the maladies facing society and how festivals like these, when used properly, can be collectively and individually healing. Cheers man! @ecoknowme
I had to put burning man at the end, but still in the list :)
As you said proper use of all these festvals are oppertunities for us to evolve better.
