Wakan Tanka is a Sioux name for the Great Spirit or "Great Mystery".
Wakan Tanka is considered the "creator of the world" or universe; thought to be All Providing. This Spirit is given respect for providing for the needs of everybody.
This respect is shown when the men and women honor the 4 directions, the Sun, Mother nature, and their fellow humans since they are all components of Wakan Tanka's creation.
