Envisioned in a Thai jungle monastery in the tropics while meditatiing at midnight under the moon before the dawn of this millenia, the Raw Spirit quickly grew to create Earth's largest ever, raw vegan, healthy living, eco-music-spirit-peace festivals. At its height, more than 3000+ people would gather at these events focused on health, raw food, eco-sustainable solutions and spirituality, hence the name "Raw Spirit". Raw Spirit produced 200+ raw, love and spirit-filled, friendly, intercultural gatherings, located in beautiful, elegant natural settings for "Education, Inspiration and Celebration."

This 501c3 educational non profit organization's numerous deeply-transformational, fun festivals featured up to nine stages, with thousands of participants, hundreds of dynamic doctors and performers, wise, well-informed researchers-presenters, as well as hundreds of carefully selected raw vegan lifestyle vendor booths of the highest quality, uplifting children's programs, job fairs, inspiring business dinners and entrepreneurs-meet-investors tables to help expand the "ecstatic-eco-economy" and arouse eco responsibility. Raw Spirit was the first raw vegan festival to feature sacred spaces for yoga, children, leadership sharing circles, raw chef demos, eco-activism, peace and meditation long before their current popularity.

These days Raw Spirit Fest is enjoying the bliss of metamorphosis and freedom felt from letting the festival be in heavenly hiatus to explore fresh projects that are guiding us in exciting, novel, uncharted directions.

Raw Spirit's leaders are on perpetual tour spreading the bliss in their eco-friendly creational vehicle (rv) with www.BlissologyUniversity.com, leading interactive certificate courses in Bliss Conscious Communication, Succulent Strategies For Supernal Health, Living Free in an Unfree World and Living Your Godzillionaire Lifestyle.

In the 1990s, Raw Spirit Festival's founder, Happy Oasis, saved her life by adopting an organic raw vegan diet while serving as the international meditation programs coordinator & spiritual teacher at what was Thailand's largest jungle meditation monastery. Thanks to adhering to a 100% raw vegan diet for many years, she successfully overcame Diabetes II, Tuberculosis, Typhoid Fever, Angina, Arthritis, Pneumonia and Chronic Fatigue.

Nevertheless, she teaches that "the quality of what goes out of our mouth is in some ways more important than the quality of what goes in".

Thus, the founder of Raw Spirit, Happy Oasis authored uncivilized ecstasies (2002) and Bliss Conscious Communication (2003) based on what she coined, "Blissology", the study of how to live a more blissful life.

The Bliss book spells out "The Blissiplines" that comprise a wholesome regime of organic bliss-conscious communication-rich recipes for co-creating more harmonic, profound, ethical, authentic and joyful relations as well as an insightful approach of how each of us can create a bliss-rich lifestyle based on our own values, and therefore become "Certified Blissologists" via Blissology University.

From ongoing research and decades of practical application, Blissology University, or Bliss U features innerviews and dynamic, live and on-line transformational interactive playshops with brilliant, innovative guest professors who are among the most blissful people on the planet.

We invite you to join us as we to co-create uplifting events to enhance sacred dialogue, prevent conflict and resolved conflict as well as to help raise humanity's conversational kundalini via events with luminaries such as don Miguel Ruiz Jr & Sr and Kimberly & Foster Gamble.

Interactive concerts, sacred sharing circles, wilderness adventures, and rawmarkable retreats. Let us know if you'd like to host or sponsor an event near you.
