Master Choa Kok Sui was a world-renowned spiritual teacher, energy master, and the founder of Modern Pranic Healing and Arhatic Yoga. Born on August 15, 1952, in Cebu, Philippines, he grew up in a multi-faith environment that nurtured his early spiritual curiosity. Although trained as a chemical engineer and successful in business, he devoted over 30 years to researching and systematizing esoteric sciences and ancient healing traditions from around the world.
Through decades of study, experimentation, and collaboration with clairvoyants and healers, Master Choa developed Pranic Healing, a powerful, practical, no-touch system of using life force, or prana, to accelerate the body’s ability to heal itself. Between 1983 and 1987, he completed what he called his “spiritual thesis,” which later became the foundation of his published works. His first book, The Ancient Science and Art of Pranic Healing, later re-released as Miracles Through Pranic Healing, introduced this system to the world. He went on to author more than 25 books on healing, energy, and spiritual development, now translated into over 30 languages and used in more than 90 countries.
Beyond healing, Master Choa also developed the path of Arhatic Yoga, a system of safe and accelerated spiritual practice designed to help aspirants awaken to their higher nature. He taught that inner purification and character building were essential for spiritual growth, stating that “without the development of the virtues, the disciple will eventually fall.”
Throughout his life, Master Choa was guided by three spiritual guides. His Sat Guru, Mahaguruji Mei Ling, has been with him across many incarnations. Under their guidance, he refined his teachings to serve as both practical tools for daily life and powerful practices for soul evolution.
Before his passing on March 19, 2007, Master Choa Kok Sui established the Institute for Inner Studies and the World Pranic Healing Foundation to carry forward his mission. Today, his work continues through the Masters, his most senior disciples trained directly by him, and thousands of Pranic Healers and Arhatic Yogis around the globe. His charitable foundations also continue to provide feeding programs, scholarships, and medical assistance in many countries.
Master Choa Kok Sui’s legacy is one of clarity, compassion, and transformation. He made the unseen world of energy accessible and practical, empowering people to heal, grow, and walk the spiritual path with purpose and service.
