about

Wakan Tanka - the Sioux name for the Great Spirit or Great Mystery. In Native American mythology, Wakan Tanka is thought of the creator of the world or universe; believed to be the All-Providing One. It is also interpreted as the power or the sacredness that resides in everything (wakan).

Lame Deer said about Wakan Tanka:

"You can't explain it except by going to the circles within circles idea, the spirit splitting itself up into stones, trees, tiny insects even, making them all wakan by his everpresence. And in turn all these myriad of things which make up the universe flowing back to their source, united in the one Grandfather spirit."

lyrics

Mystery, divinely bestowed existence
Your mind among the myriads of forms
It's inside every atom, the wakan consistence
All-providing one's germs

Outsourced from the center of being
To embrace the unity again
Vivid voices inside you are hearing
And they drive you insane

Open the eye that sees
Untie the ear which hears

Answer aeonian call
Betide the mind, that’s all

These eyes can see
These ears can hear

Listen, listen...

Amalgamate with the endless
Perceive through lens of timeless
