In this episode we open up conversation about the work of researchers and experimental channelers Don Elkins and Carla Rueckert. Best known for their legendary channelings of The Ra Material, the duo have a rich history of building out mythologies and generating synergistic narratives which are still strongly permeating the field today. The Groups dynamic and interpersonal connections create a checkered backstory which we are starting to unravel in this episode. We focus on early works by Elkins and Rueckert and try to place actual inspirations in their work against alleged conspiracies found in media. Follow along as we take a look at the strange mid-century channelings that lead to The Law of One and the influence of Rueckert and Elkins on the current spectrum of the UFO reality.

These are questions posed and answered on this episode of Consensus Unreality.
