Who or what is RAM?

A Name for the Work

RAM is the working name given to the group and its purpose: to extol, raise up, and rejoice in the exaltation of God. It was later clarified that RAM refers not to the Source itself, but to the results of the readings.

Multiple Levels of Source

The source varied. At times it came through the superconscious blending of selves, at times through messengers such as angels and archangels, and at times through Life Itself.

The Messenger

The channel was Roger Braden of Tucson—an ex-marine, elementary school teacher, and artist. He discovered his gift in 1967, began channeling the RAM readings in 1973, and continued individual readings for many years after the work readings ended in 1987.

A Past-Life Connection

Core team members indicated that Roger Braden had been John the Baptist. The material includes an allusion linking him to the Cayce reading reference as “a voice, crying in the wilderness.”

A Natural Conclusion

The readings ended in the fall of 1987 during a study of Acts 7, around the time Frank Adams suffered a stroke and later passed. No further RAM readings are known, though Roger continued giving individual readings.

RAM readings

Frank Adams helped Roger understand and prepare for his gift. He guided his early development, conducted early readings, was part of the core group, and brought deep knowledge of the Cayce material through years of study, teaching, and service.

Not for Everyone

No. The readings state clearly that this material is not for everyone. It is only of value if it bears the fruits of the spirit in harmony with one’s ideal; otherwise it may not be the right teacher.

An Ancient Lineage

Yes. The core group was told they were Essenes and were about the Father’s business: preparing the way for the coming of the Son of Man in the earth.

The Inner Foundation

The platform is the first phase of the Second Coming: the resurrection of mind, body, and spirit through prayer, meditation, thought, and deed. When enough people accomplish this inner work, a platform is formed for the return of the Lamb.

The Path to Preparation

The platform is built through cleansing, prayer, meditation, grace, and inner peace. The readings say it must become a platform of peace within individuals and groups, as preparation for His coming again.

An Inner Event

The Second Coming is not an outer spectacle but an inner realization—the awakening and resurrection of the Christ consciousness within individuals, forming the foundation for its expression in the world.

The Divine Identity

Sonship is the recognition of one’s true identity as a child of God—an heir to the divine nature—realized through alignment, obedience, and conscious awareness of the Father within.

Your Part in the Plan

Each individual is responsible for their own preparation—cleansing, aligning, and awakening—contributing to the greater work by embodying truth and living in harmony with the divine will.

Alignment with Source

Attunement is the conscious alignment of mind, body, and spirit with the divine presence, allowing guidance, clarity, and right action to flow naturally.

Making Ready

Preparation is essential to receive and express higher truth. Through inner work—prayer, meditation, and right living—one becomes a vessel capable of supporting the coming awareness.

Peace as the Foundation

The platform is built within—through peace, grace, and transformation of the individual. As enough people embody this state, a collective foundation is formed for the return of the Christ presence.
