It is the general belief of the Indians that after a man dies his spirit is somewhere on the earth or in the sky, we do not know exactly where but we are sure that his spirit still lives. Sometimes people have agreed together that if it were found possible for spirits to speak to men, they would make themselves known to their friends after they died, but they never came to speak to us again, unless perhaps in our sleeping dreams. So it is with Wakan-Tanka. We believe that he is everywhere, yet he is to us as the spirits of our friends, whose voices we cannot hear.
