1. GC: You will have before you the Life Reading given on [341] on February 28, 1925 [341-8], on the earthly existence in Egypt as Raaaart, and the associations with same. You will tell us at what period, as counted by man, in the world's history this was, and what the entity accomplished at this time.
2. You will then have before you the individuals, as I name them, and you will tell us whether or not these individuals lived in Egypt at this time, and if they were associated with this entity, and in what capacity.
3. EC: Yes, we have this sojourn in the earth's plane. This is rather A-r-a-a-r-a-a-r-t [GD's note: In the suggestion GC pronounced it R, then spelled the rest and in the first paragraph EC spelled the name again, as he did in 341-8], and the time as we find is, as counted by man, eleven thousand and sixteen (11,016) years before the Prince of Peace came into this land.
4. As to that accomplished, we find this in one of the highest civilizations of this country in its present position, for we find this same country had been submerged for nearly a quarter of a million years since the civilization had been in this portion of country, and the peoples as had overrun the country in the various changes by invasions from the east and north, and this ruler, Araaraart, being then the second of the northern kings, and followed in the rule of the father, Arart, and began the rule, or took the position as the leader in his sixteenth year and ruled over these peoples for ninety-eight years. The country, as we find, was brought to a higher state of understanding with the surrounding nations, and there was much of the religious ceremonies practiced in this time, much of this being brought in from the northern country and of the religions as existed in this same country through the religion of that of the one taken as the companion, for there were many taken, and with the unearthing of the tribal rites and ceremonies, the coalition of these truths we find were correlated with these peoples as were gathered about

this ruler, and much of the architectural forces were set in motion. As we see, the first foundations of the emblematical condition as is set in the sphinx was begun in this rule, for this, as we see, has remained the mystery of the ages.
5. In the accomplishments then, we have as these in Araaraart. This: Much of the sealing of the peoples' abilities in being drawn together for benefits of the masses rather than classes, for we find, though this ruler worshiped by many, yet remaining much in that same spirit as is found in the better classes of the ones serving Higher Forces than self, which is service to fellowman. The monuments as were unearthed and added to from time to time, we find are some still existent, though many buried beneath shifting sands. Others underneath sands that became the bed of the seas that overflowed this country.
6. (Q) Did this ruler have any other names or titles? (A) There were many titles given in the various dialects of the peoples. This is one as will be found as recorded with that of the other rulers. Araaraart, known as one of the household of rulers in the Egyptian forces. One of good stature. One of goodly countenance, for we find this entity of the larger peoples as came in from the north during the reign of one preceding this entity. The accomplishment is in the sealing of the religious rites and of giving of the laws to be used by these peoples in this great land.
7. (Q) Was this entity, as history gives it, one of the Pharaohs, or Rameses? (A) As one of Pharaohs of which there were more than three thousand.

(Q) You will now have before you the individuals, as I name them, and you will tell us whether or not these individuals lived in Egypt at this time, and if they were associated with this entity, and in what capacity.
