fake gun

In the Language of Mind a gun is a mental tool that brings about change — concentration, meditation, dream interpretation, any instrument that ends one way of being so a new one is born (since death, in this language, means inner transformation). Look at the form: a gun is a device that fires, that acts decisively to alter what is in front of it; so it mirrors the faculties of mind you aim to remake yourself with. But this gun is fake — and that single detail is the whole message. A counterfeit tool has the shape of power without the charge inside it. So your subconscious is showing you that you are only toying with the idea of change: holding the posture of transformation, pointing it at your life, while knowing nothing will actually fire. Examine where in your waking life you are rehearsing change instead of committing to it — adopting the language of growth, the props of discipline, without the real practice behind them. Notice the variations: a fake gun that someone else carries is an aspect of you bluffing its own power; pulling the trigger and having nothing happen is the felt proof that the tool you reached for was never charged. That is one symbol, read clean — and the dream around it, the room you stood in, the figure you aimed at, is still speaking. Your subconscious talks to you every night in this exact language; CHITTA is simply where you learn to read the rest of the sentence. Go within, or go without.
