About the Working Group

The Other Selves Working Group is a non-hierarchical union of spiritual seekers who have come together as equals for the purpose of  living our lives as a study of the Law of One. We strive to maintain a focus on living according to the  philosophy promulgated by the  Confederation of Planets in Service to the Infinite Creator. This involves helping each other balance in our lives and offering service in our daily lives in such ways as befit our abilities. As dedicated seekers who engage in personal spiritual work as a condition of participation in the working group, we also attempt to lighten the planetary vibration through all loving means available to us.

The core of the Confederation’s message is one of using experience to learn spiritual lessons, to better know ourselves, and to serve our other selves. To this end, we support each other in our personal struggles and help each other make the best use of our precious time in third density. Since conspiracy theories, exotic phenomena, UFOs, and the like are not foundational to this mission, we acknowledge this information but do not place much emphasis on it. Doing the individual work to discipline the personality, refine our desires and intentions, and be there for each other and the planet gives us our primary focus.

We maintain a limited public profile as our goal is not simply to spread the good word of a new gospel. Instead, we want to maintain a flexible openness to seekers who happen to come upon our work, and in this way perhaps to help them upon their path. We will happily talk with any seeker who is looking for support, guidance, or simply a friendly other self with whom to chat. Working group members will engage in one-on-one dialog to help these seekers discover their own path and provide resources as needed, anything from counseling and book recommendations to help forming their own working groups. By spreading these intimate working groups in a slow, deliberate, careful way, we hope to create the precursor of social memory without any authority at its center. Horizontalism is a core value, not quick growth or mass exposure.

From the founding of the working group, our center of gravity has resided in the channeling projects our members have organized. We see these circles as part of the lineage of Confederation channeling stretching back to the middle of the 20th century, with instruments personally trained in the protocols laid down by Carla Rueckert. We instruct much as Rueckert did, conveying the vibration of Confederation contacts carefully and delicately to preserve the lineage for future generations of seekers. As of 2024 we have spun off the High Altitude Receiving Center (HARC) into an independent organization led by former working group member Dr. Stephen Tyman, personally trained by Rueckert starting in the 1980s. HARC specializes in maintaining and growing a library of thoroughly vetted, groundbreaking inquiry into the Law of One and the nature of spiritual evolution.

Other offerings include technical resources for helping seekers organize their own working groups—be they for simple meditation, Law of One study, mutual aid, or even eventual channeling. Through our socialmemorycomplex.earth project we provide hosting, software, and guidance for seekers looking to find cameraderie with others like themselves, we help new working groups find their center and become independent projects. Additionally, we launched First Distortion Press in 2024 to publish books on Confederation philosophy, and we maintain a YouTube channel with helpful videos on various Law of One topics.

Our projects are simply expressions of our service; the central work lies in our daily lives, living as the best channels of the Creator’s love we can be. Our union is only as valuable as it serves our seeking and growing. This requires us to make some basic commitments to each other which are criteria for working group participation by others:

  1. We engage in daily meditation.
  2. We have a working knowledge of the Law of One philosophy
  3. We are willing to be vulnerable to each other and assist one another with respect for our individual paths.

If this describes your area of interest and you would like more information, you are welcome to contact us. Love and light to you and yours. We leave you with this concept from Q’uo:

What service to others is all about is taking that same group which, indeed, needs to be of service to itself, and encouraging its own members in their services to others, and turning each person outwards so that when the hands are again held and the energy [again] is moving from the left to right hand, the energy then moves clockwise, the service-to-others direction[1]. Realize that whatever your service is to be, it has to do with facing outwards and offering without any expectation what it is you feel you can do and may do to be of spiritual service to another. Never stop holding hands with those companions you have been blessed with along the way, and gazing into each others’ eyes and enjoying the sharing of the group energy that feeds you, but always remember that those who truly wish to serve shall be turning vulnerably outward and offering the gift of self, with the Creator shining through, that light may be seen in a dark world.
