Ra Uru Hu

拉．烏盧．胡 (RA URU HU) ，原名羅伯特．艾倫．克雷考爾（Robert Allan Krakower），出生在加拿大蒙特婁，1948年4月9日出生，在一戶書香門第的上流中產階級家庭中排行第四。他熱愛藝術，求學過程中就開始作曲 和演奏，透過音樂表達自己，並以此為嗜好，直到離世。他取得喬治．威廉爵士大學（Sir George Williams University）的文學士學位，但職涯中曾從事商界的廣告經理、雜誌出版商和媒體製作人。
 
1983 年某一天早上， 他離開家人，以及原本身為企業家的快速節奏，亦即，他離開了原本的生活，就此「消失」。幾個月後，他發現自己在地中海、西班牙東部海岸、美麗的溫帶島嶼伊維薩島上。這座小島，是他做為RA URU HU「真實」生活開始的地方，他總喜歡稱它為「伊甸園」。
 
1987年1月3日晚間，他和「聲音」相逢。那經驗極為可怕。聲音說：「你準備好開始工作了嗎？」接下來是毫不間斷8天8夜的工作，他詳細記述下來，成為目前為人所知的人類圖系統。RA稱這段遭遇為警鐘，從中他學習到自己之前對人類本質、宇宙，以及事物運作的臆測，是如此盲目與愚昧。 拉將自己定位為人類圖系統的傳訊者，這是他留給這世界的遺產，他自從遇見人類圖後，全心奉獻自己，將這門區分的科學傳播給全世界。他在伊維薩島上生活與工作，享受教學、玩音樂、園藝，並與他的太太、三個孩子及孫子一起生活。 就像RA常說的：「不要相信我所說，你要親身嘗試」。現在，世界各地有成千上萬的人，運用這套人類圖系統，發現它準確揭示出生命的運作形式。
 
Ra於2011年3月1日清晨5:40am在自宅離世，距離他63歲生日不到一個月。 ​

Ra Uru Hu was the Human Design System’s founder and messenger. Ra was born Alan (Robert) Krakower in Montreal, Canada on April 9, 1948, and spent his early years there. ​ After he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree, his career path led him into the business world as an advertising executive, magazine publisher, and media producer. The arts were important to Ra, and he expressed himself as a composer and performer throughout his life. ​
 
In 1983, he left Canada to travel, eventually finding his way to the island of Ibiza, where he spent years working as a school teacher.
 
In January 1987, he had an unusual mystical experience followed by an encounter with “a Voice,” an intelligence far superior to anything he had ever experienced. This encounter lasted for eight days and nights during which he received a transmission of information—what is known today as the “Human Design System.”
 
In 1989, after his encounter with the Voice, Ra Uru Hu wrote the Rave I'Ching, the foundation upon which Human Design rests and the key to unlocking the code of our genetics.
 
As the oldest of the Chinese classic texts, the I'Ching, or Book of Changes, is an ancient divination tool used for over three thousand years. Ra dedicated the next 25 years of his life to the development and teaching of the System around the world, Together with his family, he lived in the United States, Germany, and for most of the time on Ibiza, Spain where he passed away in March, 2011.
