Richard Burton: What Will Save Us

The Judgement of Solomon

I have been struggling to understand, or at least deal with, what is going on around us, so I asked. I can't say I understood the answer and our appreciate any insight any of you can offer.

Ann: Richard, is that you?

Richard Burton: As ever was, love. I have been following with interest the twists and turns, around, below, u turns, and inside out contortions, etc., on your journey to higher frequencies of consciousness.

Indeed, this is the journey of the human animal, why we come down here in the first place - although it seems nonsensical when you look at it from a three dimensional practical point of view.

Ann: Yes, it does, and so painful, too. Why not just come on out with it? Why not cut to the chase? If we know the answer anyway in our deepest core, why should we go through a silly and excruciating exercise just to confirm what we knew all along?

Richard: And yet do you know, do any of us truly know that which we have not lived?  

I understood hunger because I had been hungry. I craved power because I had no power as a child. I then fed myself to satiety and found I still was still hungry and vulnerable, and I began to learn.

If we come with a detached kind of knowledge of these concepts, we forfeit understanding.

And so too it is true of those beings striving to grow in other dimensions and environments, the knowledge born of experience that we are all one, that we all want expansion and understanding. We all want to be, to truly be, and this we can achieve only by knowing it’s opposite.

And so we come to this planet In ignorance, naked, and powerless. And here we reconnect with the center of our desires, our longing for integration and community, each contributing a unique part to the oneness.

Ann: Didn’t we have that where we came from?

Richard: Yes. And some of us always will hesitate to take on more, yet none of us really understand what we have until we experienced its opposite.

Which brings me to the world in which you are living, the world in which freedom, at least for a certain class of citizens, is taken for granted, even allowing them to assume that for those wronged by abuse, persecution, and disenfranchisement, pushing those boundaries out slowly would somehow eventually create merger as equal players with the favored few. It is a dream you see now dissipating before a naked grab for power.

Apparently, a society attempting to be governed with equality, opportunity, education, and employment is not to the liking of those who want more, and we are beginning to see that has applied to many of us under the cloak of aspirational equality. We are asked now to open our eyes and aim for a different vision, that of community.

Ann: Is this that we came to learn?

Richard: Those who are left behind and those who got ahead have have been revealed to have the same ideas, that is, protect what you have and acquire more.  It is only through this experience that we see the futility of expanded acquisition and then the mutuality among those who have suffered will allow the Angel Light of community to become the real and guiding purpose of the New World.

Ann: And what is going to make this time different from any other?

Richard: The specter of complete and total destruction.

Do you remember the parable of Solomon and the two women? The baby of one had died and each woman claimed the living baby as her own. Only when Solomon threatened to cut the baby in half, i.e., to divide the spoils between them did the real mother relinquish her claim.

We stand on a similar precipice now. And it is not all doom and gloom. We have been preparing in previous times. You might not think so when you see the endless wars from one generation to the next. But experience does not weigh equally on our collective consciousness.  We can see this time the alternative to the surrender of our collective souls to this endless pattern and can decide instead to lay down our swords and declare our love for our fellows.

That is what will save us.
