In 1975, Claude "Corky" Nowell (1944 – 2008) encountered highly advanced beings during an extraordinary experience that changed his life. As a result, he founded the non-profit organization, Summum, and changed his name to Summum Bonum Amen Ra to reflect his spiritual path. Known to friends and acquaintances as Corky Ra, he began teaching others about the Sumum philosophy. SummumTV features videos of classes given by Corky that offer insight into life's mysteries.
