Reality Tamers ~ Excerpt from Mourning Sky
The boy was a true projector, what Gregory Piermont called Reality Tamers. Reality Tamers, or projectors, were people with the psychic ability to bend reality around their feelings and beliefs. Everyone had this ability to some extent; this was why every individual had their own personal view of reality. Partially because of human nature and partially because of negative thought forms that were intentionally reinforced, most people did not recognize this ability in themselves and used it in ways detrimental to their personal goals and well-being.
This was necessary, because if everyone understood their innate ability to shape reality, there would be no need for leaders in any but the most temporary and transitory sense. People like Gregory Piermont would never have been able to amass such power and wealth. And Martin Ross would never have come to the position of authority he now commanded. No, it was for the best that most people did not understand the true nature of reality. Without such an awareness, the will of the many could be focused in support of the myth of reality portrayed by the mass media, and those with the power could bend the people to their will.
Left to themselves, the population would be entangled in a clash of conflicting goals. There would be chaos as everyone fought each other in the effort to bring their disparate views of reality to fruition. There was room at the top for only a few, while everyone else must work to support the system.
Yet there always had been some who were gifted in their ability to change reality. Some became founders of religions, like Jesus and Buddha. Some were great leaders, such as Washington and Jefferson. Some were great thinkers, such as Socrates and Einstein. And a few chose other paths, such as Gurdjieff and Aleistar Crowley.
