I think a lot of the confusion is trying look at what subjective reality means while using the ego based seperative objective language. At least what subjective reality is being described as in stevepavlina.com - as there is only one consciousness. The thing is, to be present with that one consciousness is so far from our normal waking state and language and thoughts that when one says "I don't know math - how could I have created rockets?" - is all language of the ego based seperative 'normal' (illusionary) objective world. The speck of consciousness we operate with doesn't really know the one concsiousness as knowledge and experiences that can be shared - that is stuck in the objective/seperative world illusion view.

To fathom being one with all that is, is probably not something our minds and thoughts can do. It's an experience to feel at times or tune into as an aura while kicking around as an ego. The power of now, being in the flow, Christ consciousness, heaven on earth, nirvana can touch it. And how many individuals get there - it's enlightenment, man. Trying to explain the Tao with these words will fail. "The Tao that can be named is not the Tao" - from the Tao de Ching.

I've been able to barely sustain states that expand my consciousness to the point that there are no boundaries and loose the sense of ego illusion. But that's where the culmination of subjective reality can be experienced. In thoses moments that seem timeless and 'things' are perfectly unfolding into existance to be in awe that there's a way to perceive any of it. And it does feel like all is one - but it's not that I (eog) is everything that is. The one consciousness of everything together is not an I. I've felt it in times when I was focused in the now and had no thoughts of yesterday/tomorrow or pretty much actually no thought, just being. That state can have awareness of the mind, but is not the mind. The watcher that is behind everyone's own subjective view of the illusion generated by what we've come to believe. I don't know why or what I believe a lot, but this physical reality is pretty tough to ditch.
