The word Hypergnostic is derived from the Greek words Hyper (over or above) and Gnosis (knowledge). The Nine Hypergnostic Systems are one of the foundations of the Arica theory and practice for understanding and analyzing precisely the parameters of our psyche and developing the internal Witness. An important aspect of this basic work is the awakening of our chi or Kath energy for increasing our vital energy and for developing the State of Awareness of the Witness.

The Nine Hypergnostic Systems training is a daily routine of exercise, clarification of past experiences (karma), meditation and ceremonies. Psychocalisthenics®, Kath Generation™ and the Fire Exercise™ (pictured above) directly increase our vital energy, tone our bodies and give us a sense of physical stability. The pressure and emotional charge of karma is released through honest self-observation, using specific questions and concomitant associations for each of the nine systems. The meditations for improving awareness, contemplation and one-pointedness include Plantar Audition,™ Psychic Space meditation™, Hypergnostic Meditation™ and “The Desert”™—a day and a half of solitude and self-observation. Through the “Eyes of Karma”™ ceremony we can obtain a deep sense of pacification with our parents, our children and our life experience.
