What is a “Wopida”?“Wopida” is a Dakota word with profound, infinite, eternal meaning and transforming spiritual energy. The purpose of the December 10th Global Wopida Ceremony is to be thankful and grateful for whatever Life bestows on us, knowing that every test and challenge comes into our lives for our spiritual growth and upliftment!“Whenever our souls and the innermost chambers of our heart are filled with thanksgiving and gratitude, it becomes filled with compassion, love, understanding, forgiveness, joy, happiness and oneness and there is no room for fear, hate, prejudice, revenge, jealousy, loneliness, disunity or separation from ourselves and other Members of our Human Family.” Dakota and Chickasaw Elder and Spiritual Leader, Phil Lane Jr.
