MASTER CHOA KOK SUI AND THE BIRTH OF PRANIC HEALING

Born on August 15 1952 in Cebu, the Philippines and raised in a multi-faith environment, Master Choa Kok Sui found himself drawn to paranormal and spiritual matters from the age of 12. As a teenager, he spent a year performing inner purification, laying the foundation for his ventures into the spiritual path. He also lived a simple life, akin to that of a yogi, refusing the comforts that he could otherwise have easily afforded.

As a young man, Master Choa Kok Sui studied a wide range of healing arts (notably at a time when they were not yet validated as sciences), achieving a kind of encyclopedic level of knowledge on the subject matter. He studied under spiritual guides, who themselves were spiritually advanced and extraordinarily powerful healers, and whose guidance were inevitably crucial to the development of Modern Pranic Healing.

In his spiritual journey, Master Choa Kok Sui made close associations with yogis, healers, clairvoyants, practitioners of Chinese chi kung (the art of generating internal power), and persons who were in telepathic contact with their spiritual gurus. He studied yoga, psychic phenomenon, mysticism, Chinese chi kung, Rosicrucian Teachings of the Ancient Mystical Order of Rosae Crucis (AMORC), Theosophy, Astara lessons, Arcane School teachings, and other esoteric sciences.

Throughout 1983 to 1987, Master Choa Kok Sui worked on the completion of what was his Spiritual Thesis. He labored over the monumental tasks of synthesising, experimenting, validating, conceptualizing, formulating, systematising and developing the bulk of what would become  Modern Pranic Healing and Arhatic Yoga.

Modern Pranic Healing as a science was finally born in late 1987 with the publication of Master Choa Kok Sui’s book, The Ancient Science and Art of Pranic Healing, later changed to the title Miracles Through Pranic Healing. This has since been translated into more than 30 languages and distributed in many countries, including many locations in Asia, Africa, Central and South America, Europe, Canada and the USA. A prolific author, other books written by Master Choa Kok Sui include: Pranic Psychotherapy (1990), Advanced Pranic Healing (1992), Pranic Crystal Healing (1996), Psychic Self Defence for Home and Office (1999), and Meditations for Soul Realisation (2000) serving as an introduction for thousands to the science and art of Modern Pranic Healing.

Master Choa Kok Sui later founded the Institute for Inner Studies and the World Pranic Healing Foundation, Inc., and went on to author 25 more books on Pranic Healing and spirituality, and saw more than 100 Pranic Healing Centers established in over 90 countries, The philanthropic arm of the organisation, the MCKS Charitable Foundation runs feeding programs in various countries, funds medical assistance for poor patients and contributes to disaster relief the world over, before his passing in March 19 2007.
