THINK ABOUTIT’S ALIEN TYPE SUMMARY

RA

In the Think About It Alien Database, RA is not a “god” from Egyptian myth but the name adopted by a sixth-density social memory complex that made contact with three researchers — Don Elkins, Carla Rueckert, and Jim McCarty — through 106 channeled sessions between 1981 and 1984, later published as The Law of One (also known as The Ra Material). Ra describes itself as having originated on Venus billions of years ago and claims an earlier historical contact with ancient Egypt.

Name: RA

AKA: The Law of One. Per the source, “Ra” was adopted as an approximation of the entity’s own vibrational identity, not as a claim to be the historical Egyptian deity of the same name. “Venusian Light-Beings” and “The Sun-Gods” are not reported in any source.

Location – Home System: Venus, per the source material.

Distance from Earth: Not reported in any source. (Venus’s average distance from Earth is a real astronomical figure but is not part of the Ra Material’s own claims.)

Attitude: Described in the source as compassionate and oriented toward what the material calls “service to others.”

Motives: To teach the “Law of One” — the principle that all beings and all of creation are a single, unified consciousness — per the source.

Physical Appearance: The source describes the beings, in physical form during their time on Venus, as tall, slender, and possessing a golden luster to their skin. No further physical description is given in the source.

Average Height: Not reported in any source. (No evidence found for the figure of 7’0″–8’5″.)
Average Weight: Not reported in any source.
Body Temperature: Not reported in any source.
Pulse/Respiration: Not reported in any source.
Blood Pressure: Not reported in any source.
Life Expectancy: Not reported in any source. (The claim of literal immortality or “millions of years” is not documented in the source material; no evidence found.)
Hair: Not reported in any source.
Skin: Golden luster, per the source.
Eyes: Not reported in any source. (No evidence found for “glowing indigo or white.”)
Sex: Not reported in any source.

Other Physical Information: Not reported in any source beyond the golden-skinned description above.

Special Traits and Abilities: The source describes the Great Pyramid as having been constructed through thought — described as “persuading” stone to reorganize itself — rather than through physical tools or labor.

Communication Type: Full trance channeling, per the source, distinguished there from ordinary conscious channeling.

Origin: Venus, per the source — described as a habitable, Earth-like world during an earlier “third density” phase billions of years ago.

Life Form Type: Sixth-density social memory complex, per the source.

Subspecies: Not reported in any source.

Most Common Species: Not reported in any source. (No evidence found for “Ra-Humanoid Ambassador.”)

Level of Species: Not reported in any source. (No evidence found for a “Level XVI” designation; this ranking does not appear in the source material.)

Habits: Not reported in any source beyond the teaching and pyramid-related claims described elsewhere in this entry.

Transportation Type: Not reported in any source. (No evidence found for “bell-shaped light vessels” — the source states travel was accomplished “by thought.”)

Witnesses Reports: Documented contact with Don Elkins, Carla Rueckert, and Jim McCarty of L/L Research, 1981–1984. A historical contact with ancient Egypt is described in the source. A connection to the ancient Maya is not reported in any source.

Special Features/Characteristics: Not reported in any source beyond the golden, luminous appearance described above.

Summary/Description: Ra is the name given by a sixth-density social memory complex that contacted Don Elkins, Carla Rueckert, and Jim McCarty across 106 sessions between 1981 and 1984, later published as The Law of One. Ra states it originated on Venus, which it describes as having been a habitable, Earth-like world billions of years ago before its inhabitants evolved through successive densities of consciousness. Ra also describes an earlier historical contact with ancient Egypt, where it says it took on a physical, golden-skinned form so as to be perceptible to the people of that time, and that it assisted in the construction of the Great Pyramid through thought rather than physical labor. Ra states that the name “Ra” was chosen only as an approximation of its own vibrational identity, not as a claim of being the historical Egyptian deity.

Related Cases: Not reported in any source beyond the L/L Research contact sessions described above.

Source: The Law of One (also published as The Ra Material) — Elkins, Rueckert, and McCarty; 106 channeled sessions, 1981–1984; L/L Research.

DETAILED REPORT

The Ra contact is one of the more thoroughly documented channeled works in modern metaphysical literature, in the sense that the sessions themselves were transcribed, published, and remain available in full. According to the source, Ra is a “social memory complex” — a collective consciousness formed from a population that reached a sufficiently advanced, unified state of awareness, described in the material as the sixth density. Ra states this population evolved on Venus, which it describes as having been, billions of years ago, a lush and habitable world of a size and gravity similar to Earth.

Ra’s account of contact with ancient Egypt describes a “clothed” appearance: because a sixth-density being would otherwise be imperceptible to third-density humans, Ra says it took on a physical, golden-skinned form in order to interact with the Egyptians. The source states this led to Ra being worshipped as a deity, which it describes as an unintended and undesired consequence of the contact — Ra’s stated goal was to teach the Law of One, not to be venerated. The Great Pyramid, according to the source, was built through thought-based manipulation of stone rather than manual construction, and was intended as a healing and initiation structure rather than a tomb. The source also states that these teachings and the pyramid’s intended use were later co-opted by a priestly elite.

The source describes a broader cosmology of “densities” of consciousness (first through at least seventh) and a long-cycle “harvest,” in which beings move to the next density according to their degree of spiritual polarization. This harvest concept is genuinely part of the material. However, no evidence was found tying this concept to the year 2026 specifically, nor to terms such as “Null-Zone,” “Blue Ray frequencies,” “Galactic Center” light-codes, “Crystal-Spiral energy,” or “DNA activation” — none of these appear in the source material and are not reported in any source.

RESEARCHER’S NOTES

Ra — Channeled Cosmology, a Named Contact, and Where the Record Actually Stops

The name is explicitly not a claim of identity: the source material states Ra chose its name only because it approximated the entity’s own vibrational signature, not because it is the historical Egyptian sun deity. Treating “Ra” and the Egyptian god as interchangeable overstates what the source itself asserts.
The contact is unusually well-documented as a channeled work: unlike many entries in this archive, the primary source here is a specific, named, published body of transcripts (106 sessions, three named researchers, dated 1981–1984), which makes source-checking straightforward — the standard here isn’t whether the events described are literally true, but whether a claim on this page actually appears in that material.
A layer of invented technical vocabulary had been added: terms like “Blue Ray frequencies,” “Crystal-Spiral energy,” “Null-Zone,” and a numbered “Level XVI” species ranking do not appear anywhere in the Law of One material and are not reported in any source.
A full biometric panel had been fabricated: specific height ranges, blood pressure, pulse, and eye color were invented outright; the source gives only a general physical description (tall, slender, golden-skinned) and nothing more precise.
The “2026 Harvest” framing is anachronistic: the source does describe a harvest/density-shift concept as a real, recurring theme of the material, but does not tie it to the year 2026 or to any of humanity’s present-day circumstances specifically; that framing is not reported in any source.
Maya contact is unsupported: Ra’s documented historical claims center on ancient Egypt; no evidence was found for a parallel claim of contact with the ancient Maya.

Stripped of its added technobabble and invented biometrics, what remains of the Ra entry is a genuinely notable channeled record: three named researchers, over a hundred transcribed sessions, and a cosmology built around unity, densities of consciousness, and a claimed — and explicitly disclaimed as literal — connection to Egyptian antiquity. Readers weighing this material should treat it, as with all channeled sources, as testimony about a claimed contact rather than as verified history, while recognizing that the sessions themselves are a real, citable, and unusually well-preserved document.
