Quote:"Should a person be able to attend a sweat lodge if he can afford the asking price?  Certainly!  Should a person be able to attend an "authentic Lakota Sweat Lodge" for a price of admission?  That is a question only the Lakota Sioux can answer. "

I think that it sets a dangerous precedent to set a dollar value to a ceremony. Once a commodity has a dollar value, then it is no longer is free and then the price rises until those that need it most, can no longer afford it.



Oh and this Lakota says our spirituality is not sell and
if it is it is fraud
In Spirit
