Our beloved Arkadag is not only concerned about the material welfare of our people, but he is also very concerned about educating the young generation who are developing spiritually and morally. If we want to have a generation who will develop our country even more than before, we should be a generation who is patriotic, loyal to our nation and our national Leader, morally clean, hardworking, and has a wide outlook, then it is a great year to carry out the important educational work that should be carried out in this regard, that is, people working in various professions. Those who are taking professions, elders, mentors, masters, and pedagogues must have a special service to complete.
In this regard, the books written by our Hero Arkadag, as well as the works were created by his great efforts, are valuable treasures. One such work is the book “Source of wisdom”. Narrations from the lyrical genre of folk creative works, which have not lost their importance even today, have found their rightful place in this book. They used to say, «If you have a mind, follow the mind, and if you don’t have a mind, follow the story». Narratives, which are the source of wisdom and intelligence, play an important role in human life. Therefore, this folk creative resource is widely used in the context of school education, which is not used only in one year. School, in turn, prepares young people for society.
Man is the greatest value of society. Man has created society and has been managing it, reforming it, and continuing it for centuries. It strives to maintain a strong foundational approach to community governance. Each society has its own distinctive features, and its attitude is determined and shaped by the people living in that society. Because the treasure of upbringing is concentrated on his folk works and stories. Perhaps it is called a national characteristic. Many books were written, reprinted, material and non-material cultural heritage was created, studied, and folk works were passed on to the future generations in order to transmit those national characteristics to the future generations.
Of course, parenting is a very responsible, complex, non-stop, continuous, day-to-day work, a phenomenon. If we turn to scientific sources, we find that education begins in the family and is formed in society. Cared by the state is important for the growing young generation to be brought up in the family in accordance with the requirements. From that point of view, the policy of the state guarantees what kind of person the child will be in the society. Thus, the «chain» of «State – school – family» is formed. As an example of such logic, our honorable Arkadag not only cares about the education of the young generation, but also pays special attention to the fact that the education of the generation should be carried out at a high level, and makes every effort to create valuable books that help in the education of the generation.
In the book «Source of wisdom» the narratives, which are pearls of Turkmen folklore, are grouped.
