10 August — Abay day
Today we honor Abay Kunanbayuly, the great Kazakh poet, thinker, and educator.
Abay is not only a symbol of one era, but a spiritual guiding light whose wisdom continues to inspire generations. His poems and Words of Edification embody the values of pursuing knowledge, working honestly, and upholding the highest principles of humanity.
“Think not of profit, but of honor;
Strive to learn and know more,” —
this timeless message of Abay remains especially relevant for the younger generation today.
Our mission is not merely to read Abay’s works, but to instill in young people the noble qualities at the heart of his concept of the “Complete Person”: aspiration, hard work, deep thought, contentment, and compassion.
Abay’s legacy is a school of moral education.
Abay’s words are a path to knowledge.
Abay’s wisdom is a spiritual foundation for raising honest and responsible citizens.
May the legacy of the great thinker continue to enlighten our minds and guide our hearts!
