Wakan Tanka, in the Sioux way of life, is the term for “the sacred” or “the divine”. This is usually translated as “The Great Spiritt”. However, others believe its meaning is closer to “Great Mystery” as Lakota spirituality is not monotheistic. Wakan Tanka was supposed to have placed the stones and minerals in the ground. They were also supposed to change the seasons and weather, and plants were supposed to have come out of the ground by their hand.
