The Wisdom of Ruhnama

IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE MOST EXALTED
My Beloved People!
My Dear Nation,

This book, written with the help of inspiration sent to my heart by the God who created
this wonderful universe and who is able to do whatever He wills, is Turkmen Ruhnama.
(Ruhnama, Book I)


Saparmyrat Turkmenbashy the Great (1940-2006)
The late President of Turkmenistan and
Author of Ruhnama

"Ruhnama is a new worldview in the sense that it is a spirit that stimulates nature, society, and
people to work. Without a spirit, it is impossible to speak of life; spirit is the source of life."

Great Turkmenbashy writes:

The mind and proper knowledge bring man closer to Allah.

Possession of proper knowledge allows man to look into the far distance.

Proper knowledge is a means to save oneself from the flood of life that would otherwise have a devastating impact.

Only proper knowledge can provide an answer to the question of how to live and what to do to live. The kind of knowledge that fails to provide answers to this question is in fact an illusory attempt, totally in vain.

Man should know himself; this is what renders him superior.

Man is indebted in that he should know.

Knowing means thinking about the world, finding a proper place for oneself in the world and proving oneself.

The time of the sword is over. But even the sword itself is a product of the mind and proper knowledge.

When I say the time of the sword is over, I mean that the mind and proper knowledge that was once utilized to produce the sword should now be directed to producing and inventing useful things.
