A Celebration of Light and Gratitude
Join our community in Central London for an afternoon of cake, connection and joyful remembrance - honouring the life and teachings of our beloved Teacher GMCKS.
Who we're celebrating
Born on 15 August 1952 in Cebu, Philippines, Grand Master Choa Kok Sui - known warmly to students around the world as GMCKS - was a chemical engineer and successful businessman who spent more than three decades studying esoteric healing traditions.
Even as a boy, he chose books over play, absorbing everything he could find on healers, saints and mystics rather than joining the other children outside. That early curiosity became a life's work: in 1984 he published his first book translated into 27 languages, Miracles Through Pranic Healing, and went on to found the Institute for Inner Studies and the World Pranic Healing Foundation to carry his teachings to students across the globe. He passed away in March 2007, leaving a final, simple instruction to his students - practise diligently, purify yourself, spread the teachings - words we carry into every gathering, including this one.
