I don't believe that there is either a subjective reality
or an objective reality. I see it as a continuum. For example do we have free will or is life pre-determined? I would argue that it is both. We have freedom of choice, but we are also constrained by many outside factors.
I don't think any human can be completely objective, but we can be more, or less, objective. That is, we can take on views and factors from outside our own personal reality. Yes, I understand that once we become aware of something then it enters our subjective reality. However, only in some respects. There is always a reality outside our own.
And this outside reality can sometimes impose itself onto our subjective reality. For example in an earthquake, or in the case of one individual using the power of suggestion upon another.
