7105. 'Go to your burdens!' means that they must lead lives involving conflict. This is clear from the meaning of 'going' as leading a life, dealt with in 3335, 4882, 5493, 5605; and from the meaning of 'burdens' as molestations by falsities, dealt with in 6757, thus conflicts against those falsities.
