The Global Fame of Celestial Steeds: Conference Held in Turkmenabat
The Lebap Regional Library recently hosted a prestigious conference titled "Celestial Steeds: Destined for Global Fame," jointly organized by the Lebap Regional Committee of the Agrarian Party of Turkmenistan and the regional library staff.
The event brought together esteemed village elders, venerable mothers, officials from the Main Education Department, and students from the Turkmenabat Agro-Industrial Secondary Vocational School of the S.A. Niyazov Turkmen Agricultural University.
The Winged Soul of the Nation
Throughout the conference, speakers elaborated on the profound significance of the Akhal-Teke horse in the life of the Turkmen people. It was noted that for centuries, these "reed-eared" steeds have been far more than just a decoration for national festivities; they have been regarded as the closest confidants, loyal friends, and "wings" of the Turkmen people.
Key discussion points included:
- A Historical Bond: How the ancestors of the Turkmen people held the horse in the highest esteem, integrating the steed into the very fabric of their social and spiritual lives.
- National Pride: The Akhal-Teke’s role as a symbol of the nation’s rapid progress and its enduring presence in folk traditions.
"Horses: A Heritage from Antiquity" Book Exhibition
A highlight for the attendees was an extensive book exhibition prepared by the library staff titled "Horses: A Heritage from Antiquity." The exhibition featured a comprehensive collection of literary works, with a primary focus on the books authored by the National Leader of the Turkmen People, Hero-Arkadag.
These works, which masterfully describe the beauty, history, and international prestige of the Akhal-Teke breed, served as a profound source of inspiration for the participating youth and students.
"Our horses are not just a symbol of beauty, but a testament to the creative and spiritual strength of our people. The works of Hero-Arkadag are the ultimate guide in introducing this treasure to the world," one participant remarked.
Gratitude for National Development
In conclusion, the conference participants expressed their sincere gratitude to the National Leader of the Turkmen People, Hero-Arkadag, and to the President of Turkmenistan, Arkadagly Hero Serdar, for their tireless efforts in elevating the glory of the Turkmen horse and ensuring the prosperity of the nation.
