Let's see if I have this right.

Under the label of Subjective Reality...

We are all extensions of Source Energy (God, Universe, Higher Power, All That Is). Each of us has our own, individual consciousness, and each of us also has access to the God Consciousness (replace with your own favorite term) because that consciousness is a vital part of each of us. Indeed, it is the core of who we are.

Collectively, we create the physical world - and all of it circumstances - as it is with our thoughts. In this way, we are all responsible for whatever happens in our world.

Individually, we create our own, individual worlds and all of the circumstances that enter them. For instance, while the VT shootings certainly occurred in our collective world regardless of whether I knew about them or not, had I chosen ignorance to the events of that day, it would not have occurred in my world. (i.e. it would not have had any affect upon me) On the other hand, had I chosen to drive out to Virginia to try and help, it would have become an integral part of my life experience. All of that is my choice.

On a larger scale, if more people chose to not allow these "negative" events into their experiences, fewer and fewer of these events would be created, since it is the collective Consciousness that is creating them.

(Incidentally, I believe MM is spot on when he talks about meeting violence with peace as the only true means to achieving peace. The more "pushing against" we do as a society to these things we don't like - such as VT - the more they will occur again and again.)
