What is Arhatic Yoga all about?
Arhatic Yoga is a comprehensive system of spiritual practices that anyone can follow regularly to rapidly and safely accelerate spiritual evolution and union with their Divine Nature. It is not only meditation but a way of life.
First, the role of the Teacher or Guru in the life of the spiritual practitioner is explained and clarified in detail, without the unproven traditions and superstitions.
Then, extensive purifications (both inner and outer) are meticulously practiced to prepare the body for the inflow of ‘Divine Energies.’ This step is critical. The Bible says one should not pour new wine (Soul Force) into old wineskins (unprepared and impure bodies). Purifications entail specialized breathing techniques and simple and easy-to-follow physical exercises to purify the physical and etheric bodies quickly. These physical exercises are simple enough to be done by anyone and do not require agility and strength like Hatha Yoga and other traditional practices. Several additional techniques are taught to enable the spiritual practitioner to remove inner weaknesses.
Arhatic Yoga also introduces several powerful meditations to enable students to accelerate the communication of the bodies with their ‘Higher Souls.’ The practices also gradually purge negative thought patterns, pent-up emotions, and tendencies (from past and present lives). Meditations also cleanse the chakras and aura, providing vitality to the practitioner.
The workshop also stresses the importance of service, tithing, and study to ensure the overall development of the student.
How is Arhatic Yoga different from Hatha Yoga?
Arhatic Yoga is advanced yoga practiced by Adepts and Yogis since ancient times. It was revealed to Grand Master Choa Kok Sui by His Spiritual Teacher, Maha Guruji Mei Ling.
Arhatic Yoga is a synthesis of practices related to internal alchemy. This does not involve the difficult physical postures of Hatha Yoga; instead, it emphasizes meditations for deep and thorough purification of the chakras, meridians, and subtle bodies. In addition, you will be given a step-by-step routine to maintain and continually improve your spiritual practices. This will involve a schedule you can follow to accelerate your spiritual development and still have an everyday life.

Will this contradict my religion or other spiritual practices?
Arhatic Yoga explains many of the deeper spiritual truths of the world’s religions. Not only does it not contradict them, but it empowers the practitioner as he/she understands the ‘inner truths’ often divulged by the religions’ founders only to the inner circle disciples.
Arhatic Yoga also synthesizes the key techniques and principles of Raja Yoga, Jnana Yoga, Simplified Hatha Yoga, Kundalini Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, and Karma Yoga in a simple step-by-step system that the mainstream people can use to develop spiritually and still maintain a healthy family and career.

The Meditation on Twin Hearts is a 20-minute guided meditation to achieve peace and illumination. It is also a way of serving the world by increasing harmony and peace by blessing the earth with loving kindness. During this meditation, the Heart and Crown chakras get activated, which allows a tremendous amount of divine energy to enter the body.

The effects, besides bringing peace and harmony to the world, include inner peace, happiness, better memory, clarity of mind, recharged body, improved health, and intuition for the practitioner.
