Consciousness: Tiokasin Ghosthorse


Listen Later

What if language was not a tool for naming things, but a vibration of relationship?

What if intelligence wasn’t a human asset, but an ecological rhythm?

What if consciousness is not what happens in our heads—but what happens between us, through us, with the land, with water, with wind?

 

Come gather for a conversation with Tiokasin Ghosthorse, Cheyenne River Lakota elder, host of First Voices Radio, master musician, and steward of relational ways of knowing. Rooted in the vibrational teachings of the old Lakota language, a language shaped by Earth and used to speak with, not about, Tiokasin invites us to unlearn the dominance of human-centered thought and listen again to Earth as consciousness.
