Clara Louise serves on the fourth ray of God’s purity, and her musical keynote is “Calm As the Night.” Her soul’s devotion to God is reflected in her prior embodiments. In the days of [[Lemuria]], she served in the central temple as a '''priestess at the altar of the Divine Mother''', and at the time of Jesus she was embodied as the '''apostle James'''. In her recent life, she often repeated to others the words of Jesus, “What is that to thee? follow thou me!”<ref>John 21:22.</ref> | Clara Louise serves on the fourth ray of God’s purity, and her musical [[keynote]] is “Calm As the Night.” Her soul’s devotion to God is reflected in her prior embodiments.

<blockquote>Cherish the era of childhood and preserve that innocence through all the years of thy life. For the one whose ascension you celebrate this day, your own beloved Clara Louise, did keep that innocence and purity side by side with an astute and mature discipline and a very ready awareness of the plots and ploys of the fallen ones to tear from her the bridal veil in the very hour of her ascension. | <blockquote> | ||

Ah, yes! She kept the watch in Berkeley, California. And I kept it with her for the children and the youth of the world. And many of you are sponsored by our flame. | |||
We come with the aura of roses—mine pink, becoming the [[ruby ray]] of the blood of Christ; hers the white of her beloved Amen Bey and Mother Mary and Serapis, Lord of Life. Thus we two, standing as mothers mothering the Flame within you, present the body and the blood of Christ as the white and the pink, that you might also see that there is a bridal bouquet waiting for you as you accept the initiation of the cross of the ruby ray, of the angels of white fire. | |||
Thus, enter into the joy of the hallowed circle of thy Father and thy Mother. And reconsecrate your life as “Holiness unto the L<small>ORD</small>”<ref>Exod. 28:36; Jer. 2:3; Zech. 14:20, 21.</ref>—priests and priestesses of the sacred fire, drawing the circle of the One.<ref>Thérèse of Lisieux, “A Bird That Takes Flight,” {{POWref|24|44|, November 1, 1981}}</ref> | |||

<blockquote>If you have the resolution, if you have the balance of your [[threefold flame]], you will see and know that in the hour of your passing you can make your ascension, as occurred in the case of the first Mother of the Flame, Clara Louise Kieninger. She did make her ascension from the place where she passed, Berkeley, California, and chose that place, beloved, that there might ever be anchored there that focus of the ascension flame for the youth of the world. | <blockquote> | ||

So, beloved, there are those such as the first Mother of the Flame, who, upon the hour of passing and the release of the last sacred breath, did enter into ascension coils, as is meet. And thus she appeared at the temple of Serapis Bey, met her twin flame there, Amen Bey, and has been serving the youth of the world ever since—not alone from Luxor but she does journey from retreat to retreat around the world. Many of these retreats you have never heard about, but you shall hear about them in due time. | |||
Clara Louise Kieninger, then, does go to the retreats to teach those who tarry there who have lessons to learn, karma to balance. And she speaks also to the hierarchy of the retreat, imploring them to send reinforcements for the care of the youth of the world and especially the unborn and especially the dire situation of the sacrifice of children in the womb and at term. Blessed ones, this has been her cause for many, many, many years in embodiment and now in the octaves of light.<ref>Astrea and Purity, “The Word Must Be Spoken: Make the Call!” {{POWref|45|43|, October 27, 2002}}</ref> | |||

Since her ascension, she has given seven dictations through Elizabeth Clare Prophet. In [[Gautama Buddha]]’s annual New Year’s address on January 1, 1973, Clara Louise was present at inner levels throughout the service.

<blockquote>Some of you may recall one who passed from you some time ago, the first Mother of the Flame who later became the Regent Mother. Well, I want you to know that tonight at inner levels she is with you.... I want you to understand that her body is no longer gray or crooked in any way; her form no longer reflects age, but only the beauty of her earliest youth and maturity.

I want you to know that she still will be with you until this service shall break up. Until you shall leave and depart these doors, she will be with you this night, giving her love and her counsel at inner levels to you, conveying her blessing to you as the first Mother of the Flame. And she shall, ere the night pass, give to the present Mother of the Flame a torch charged with the vital fires from God’s heavenly altar and the conveyance of a vast mission to illuminate the world’s children and produce the blessing of true culture to the age and unto all people everywhere.<ref>Gautama Buddha, “The Torch Is Passed!” {{POWref|26|22|, May 29, 1983}}</ref> | |||

<blockquote>The torches must always be passed. One day you will pass a torch. The most important thing to remember about the passing of a torch is that the torch is a flame that burns.

As you go into the central sun of your mighty [[I AM Presence]] and form and fashion your torch of life, you will want to be certain, as those who have gone before us are certain, that the torch will contain all that the one who follows you on the Path will need in order to make it all the way Home. | |||
I have mentioned to you that our beloved Mark signed my own copy of ''Climb the Highest Mountain'' with the words “May you win all the way.” It is not enough that we wish victory upon someone, or winning. We want them to win all the way, every step of the way—not just today but to the hour of the ascension. | |||
Every guru is concerned for the blessed chela—that he make it all the way Home, else the Path should be in vain. Therefore, you must be concerned for the chela you do not yet know, for the master you are to become—that even now you are forging a torch that you will one day pass. And when it comes time to pass the torch, there will be no time to say, “Wait a minute, I must create the torch.” The torch must be there and burning. | |||
The torch of Gautama Buddha, Clara Louise and our own beloved [[Lanello]] were there—just seven weeks before his ascension. That very year of 1973, [[Summit University]] opened on a full-time basis—out of that torch. And all who have passed through its halls are free to ratify the will of God and receive one petal of the torch, one petal-flame that becomes a nucleus of their own torch to be passed in the hour of the appointing.<ref>Elizabeth Clare Prophet, October 25, 1981.</ref> | |||
