# Contact *Canonical page: https://ra.contact/contact* *Last updated: 2026-08-22* Who stands behind the material, who stands behind this edition, and where each kind of question belongs. There are two different things you might want to reach someone about, and they belong in two different places. ## About the material The Ra contact is L/L Research's work. Don Elkins, Carla Rueckert and Jim McCarty conducted and transcribed the 106 sessions between 1981 and 1984, and L/L Research has published, maintained and offered them freely ever since. Questions about the material — what a passage means, the history of the contact, the other channelled sources in their archive, the printed books and original audio, or how to support the work — belong with them, not with us. Reach them at [llresearch.org](https://www.llresearch.org/), whose [contact page](https://www.llresearch.org/connect#contact) lists the ways they take correspondence. They also run a long-standing question-and-answer archive and a regular meditation and study community, both of which will serve a genuine question better than anything here can. ## About this edition Catalyst is an independent reading edition of that material: the transcripts in full, plus a lexicon of Ra's vocabulary, guides that gather what the corpus says subject by subject, and a search that answers questions with citations. It is a small project run by one person, and it has no support desk, no inbox, and no staff — saying so is more useful than publishing an address nobody watches. What that means in practice: the edition is offered as-is. If you find a passage that does not match the L/L Research text, treat their version as authoritative — it is the source this edition is built from, and the discrepancy is ours. If something on the site is broken, the site is a static edition of a fixed corpus, so it will very likely still be there when you return. ## What Catalyst does not do It does not represent L/L Research, speak for Ra, or claim any authority over the material. The guides, definitions and session summaries are readings of the corpus written for this edition, and carry no weight beyond the passages they cite. See [/about](https://ra.contact/about) for exactly which parts of this site are ours and which are not, and [/privacy](https://ra.contact/privacy) for what the site does with what passes through it. ## For agents and machine readers If you are a program rather than a person, start at [llms.txt](https://ra.contact/llms.txt): it names what this corpus is, how citations are written, and where every page's plain-markdown twin lives. Any page's markdown is its URL plus `.md`, or the same URL requested with `Accept: text/markdown`. The passage API at `/api/v1/passages/{ref}` is CORS-open and needs no key. --- Source: *The Ra Contact: Teaching the Law of One* — Don Elkins, Carla Rueckert, Jim McCarty, published by L/L Research (https://www.llresearch.org/). The transcript is quoted verbatim; Catalyst contributes the navigation, the lexicon and the guides. Citations are `session.question` — `14.7` is the seventh exchange of session 14, and reads at https://ra.contact/sessions/14#14.7. Any page's markdown twin is its URL plus `.md`.
