This is a YouTube video titled "You Are an Instrument of Consciousness, with Eckhart Tolle" containing a spoken segment from June 18, 2025, where a speaker discusses the nature of consciousness, inner stillness, and creativity. The excerpt features a single speaker elaborating on spiritual and philosophical concepts related to consciousness and the mind.
You are the consciousness out of which every thought comes. And then it pops back. It's like a wave or ripple. You are the consciousness that is far greater than any single thought, or even greater than the totality of thought. And that consciousness is experienced when you first you touch it as inner stillness. Stillness doesn't mean you go to sleep. It means the mind is where the mind was before. There's a space, and out of that space comes all creativity, every great realization or insight that any human being has ever had. The creative impulse comes out of the vast intelligence that is there. And then the mind, it flows into the mind, and the mind becomes an instrument for that.
