I decided to go again to Bear Butte to fast and pray…and do you know what happened? Wakan Tanka (the Great Spirit or Great Mystery) and Tunkashila (Grandfather Spirit) gave me the same answer I was given on my trip there in 1927. The Sioux should go back and pick up the good things that our grandfathers, grandmothers, aunts, uncles, fathers, and mothers had taught us. Our only hope was to fall back upon our traditional way of life. It was the only foundation we had that would give meaning and purpose to us. I brought this message back to the elders…
