• Aldığınız her nefes, hayata bir ışık olamıyorsanız israf, olmuyorsanız haramdır!
• Âleme bir ışık yakmak için yeraltı dünyasıyla irtibatı sürdürmek gerek!
• Atomların kendi aralarında, ışıktan çok daha hızlı bir internet ve konnektom iletişim ağı vardır.
• Bilim insanı; zamanın ihtiyaçlarına çözüm bulmanın yanında, asırlar sonrasının problemlerine de çare ve ışık olmakla yükümlüdür! Çin Ulusal Nanobilim ve Teknoloji Merkezinde (NCNST) beş yıldır yürütülen araştırmada geliştirilen DNA nanorobotları, kanserin tedavisinde başarılı oldu. Gözle görülemeyecek boyutlarda ve tüp şeklinde üretilen nanorobotların çapı 19 nanometre ve boyu 90 nanometre. “Bir iğnenin ucundan beş bin kat daha küçük” olan nanorobotlar, kan dolaşımına bırakıldıklarında vücuttaki tümörü tespit ediyor ve harekete geçiyor. Kanın pıhtılaşması ve ipliksi doku oluşturması için tümöre thrombin enzimi enjekte eden nanorobotlar, kanla beslenme yolunu keserek tümörü açlığa terk ediyor. Bu şekilde kanserle mücadele eden nanorobotlar, tümörün haftalar içinde küçülmesini sağlıyor.
• Bilim insanlığı; hiçbir ışığın olmadığı yerde, daha parlak ışıklar yaktırabilecek bir ışık yakabilmektir!
• Bir söz, hakikat yolunda bir ışık yakabilir!
• Birbirinden farklı bilim / ilim dalları arasında, ne kadar fazla münasebet kurabilirsek, istikbale ışık tutacak o kadar çok yeni fikirle yaratıcılığımızı artırmış oluruz!
• Elektron bir kuantum parçacığı, foton ışık kuantumudur.
• Hayal gücü, keşiflerin yolunu aydınlatan bilgiden daha güçlü bir ışıktır!
• Hedefte Lucifer var, belli bir ışık spektrumunda parlar ve geçiş üstünlüğü sağlar!
• Her ölümde hayat için bir ışık vardır. Keşke fark edebilsek!
• Işık, ışığa ışıktır.
• Kâinata ışık tutan kahramanlar, laboratuvarlarda yetişir!
• Madde değişiyor, zaman değişiyor… Değişmeyen sadece ışık.
• Sırf doğmuş ve doğurmuş olmak için değil âleme ve hayata bir ışık yakmak için doğmak ve doğurmak gerek!
• Sürücüsüz araçlar gibi otonom hareketli sistemlerin sanal olarak kumanda edilmesi, ışık hızındaki gecikmeler sebebiyle tehlike arz edebilir.
• Yarın, internette ışık hızı kullanılacak. Çünkü ışık dalgalarının titreştiği oranında frekansı artar, frekansı arttığı oranda da bilgi taşıma kapasitesi artar.
• Aklı, bilimi, ilmi ve âlimleri; rehberim ve yolumu aydınlatan ışık olarak gördüm.

İnsan Allahın verdiği aklı kullanmamak için elinden geleni yaparmış. EDİSON

***************************************

İspanya’da Beni Ahmer’in Gırnata devletinin 1490’da yıkılmasının ardından 1492’de Yahudiler İspanya’dan sürülür ve Osmanlı İmparatorluğu tarafından kabul edilirler. (Tefekkür edenler için ibret vardır; Kuran ayeti) Genç alimlerin dikkatine sunulur.

Kanuni, 1570’lerde sürülen yahudiler arasında bulunan Joseph Nassi ile anlaşma yapar, Kıbrıs’ta Josep Nassi’nin riyasetinde Yahudi Krallığı kurulacaktır. 1570-71 Kıbrıs Fethi’nden önce bir gecede Napoli’deki Venedik Donanması yokedilir.

1571’de fethedilen Kıbrıs, 93 Harbi neticesinde elimizden çıkmaya başlar, 1878 Ayestafanos Anlaşması, 1.Dünya Savaşı ve 1923 Lozan Anlaşması neticesinde kaybedilir. Kıbrıs’tan çıkarılan dersler neticesinde başlamakta olan 2.Dünya Savaşı koşulları değerlendirilir ve 1.Dünya Savaşında kaybedilen Antakya-İskenderun’un Hatay olarak geri dönüşü sağlanır. Hatay örneği de bu sefer Kıbrıs’a ışık tutar ve adadaki 1974 Yunan Darbesi’nin yarattığı yeni koşullar değerlendirilerek, Kıbrıs’a Barış Harekatı düzenlenir ve adanın kuzey kısmında Türk egemenliği tesis edilir.

TEENNÎ
(ﺗﺄﻧّﻰ) i. (Ar. eny “ağır davranmak, temkinli olmak”tan te’ennі) İlerisini düşünerek, ihtiyatlı davranarak acele etmeden iş görme, düşünceli hareket etme: Gazab ta’cîl ile câhillerindir / Teennî hilm ile âkıllerindir (Şeyhî). Bir hadîs-i şerifte, “Teennî Rahman’dan, acele ise şeytandandır” buyrulmuştur (Ömer N. Bilmen). Hayâtı boyunca dâima ihtiyat fikrinden, kontrol ve teennî şuûrundan mahrum yaşamış (Sâmiha Ayverdi).

Asr, isim olarak “dehr, mutlak zaman, özellikle içinde bulunulan zaman, karn yani seksen veya 100 senelik zaman dilimi, gündüz, gece, sabah, akşam, ikindi vakti” gibi mânalara gelir

Mehmet Akif, vel asır suresine değinen şiirinde, zamana damgasını vuracak olan dört dörtlük insan niteliklerini sıralamış, bu nitelikleri bizatihi kendinde taşıyarak, zeminde, sahada sürekli hareket ve aksiyon halinde bulunmuş, Berlin’den Hicaz’a kadar olan coğrafyalarda kendisine görevler edinmiş, gözlemlerde bulunmuş ve bunların neticesinde yüreğinde taşıdığı istiklal ruhu yine zamanlar aşan bir istiklal marşına dönüşmüştü.

Buradaki istiklal, sadece savaşı kazanmak, bağımsızlığı elde etmek tarzında değildi. Bu istiklal, vel asır suresinde anlatılmış olan insanın temel karakteristiği idi, bu karakteristik ile istiklal ruhunu taşıyan insanlar, medeniyetin yüreği olan tüm işlerde de vasıflarını ortaya koyacak ve bu manada iktisat da istiklal meselesi haline getirecektir.

Mehmet Âkif’in baş yapıtı olan Safahat kitabı da bir atlas mahiyetindedir. Dilimizde yayınlanmış bulunan hiçbir şiir kitabında bu derece zengin bir şehirler, ülkeler, memleketler, insanlar, kişiler, coğrafyalar zenginliği göze çarpmamaktadır.

Safahat kitabı bu manada da bir şaheserdir. Ülkemizde yayınlanan kitaplar arasında indeksi bulunan tek şiir kitabı da Safahat idi, bu şekilde şiirdeki şehirler ve coğrafyalar takip edilebilmektedir.

Acılı bir dille yazılan bu kitap sefaleti gözler önüne sermiş ve sefahatdan, sefaletten safhalar halinde kurtuluş Safahat’ına bir umut ışığı olarak önerdiği çarelerle ulaşılmasını, nesillerin gözünün önüne sermiştir.

Bu nesil Asım’ın nesli olacaktır, bir umut ışığıdır.

Asr Suresi Şiiri (Mehmet Akif Ersoy)

 

Halikın namütenahi adı var en başı Hakk
Ne büyük şey kul için Hakk’ı tutup kaldırmak
Hani ashâb-ı kirâm ayrılalım derlerken
Mutlaka sûre-i ve’l-Asr’ı okurmuş bu neden ?
Çünkü meknun o büyük sûrede esrârı felâh
Başta iman-ı hakikî geliyor sonra salâh
Sonra Hak, sonra sebat, işte kuzum insanlık
Dördü birleşti mi yoktur sana hüsran artık.

Bu güzel manzumenin sade anlamı şöyledir:

• Yaratıcının sonsuz adı var, bunların başında “Hak” adı gelir.
• Hakkı tutup ayağa kaldırmak, kul için ne büyük sevap, ne değerli bir eylemdir!
• Peygamber’in arkadaşları ayrılacakları sırada Asr Suresini okurlarmış, acaba neden?
• Çünkü o büyük Surede felahın (başarının, mutluluğun) sebepleri gizlidir.
• Başarı ve mutluluğun ilk sebebi gerçek iman, sonra güzel eylem ve düzgün ahlâktır. Sonra hak (doğruluk, hakikatten ayrılmamak) doğru işte sebat gelir. İşte insanlık budur kuzum!
• Bu dördü (yani iman, güzel ahlâk, düzgün işte sebat ve hak (doğruluk, dürüstlük) bir arada bulundu mu artık sen hiç ziyana uğramazsın, daima başarılı ve mutlu olursun!

When placed in its proper geopolitical setting, we see that the Chinese policy at the end of the sixth century was to create a buffer zone and to declare this zone an empire as if an actual Eastern Turkic Empire had survived after Turan’s death. The historiographical trap is here: the Chinese made the better of a bad bargain because Tuldikh simply failed to meet the expectations. They claimed that their champion was the Great Qaghan while in fact he has been very much ejected from the political scene in the steppe, in which the Tiele and the Western Empire played the main roles. When chaos erupted in internal Chinese politics, this buffer zone indeed turned into a powerful Southern Empire under Shibi and Xieli. This, however, was a completely unexpected development which proved if anything that it was extremely dangerous to make use of this northern Ordos region to settle nomadic allies; in Antiquity the Ordos has been the very first region where the Xiongnu people grew powerful. The Eastern Empire under Shibi and Xieli, a very long-stretched empire following the Chinese frontier towards the east, lived by pillaging northern China. There was no apparent attempt to put the court back to the north of the Gobi. It was very different from the first Turkic Empire and cannot be seen as a legacy of this first empire, but as a consequence of the Chinese answer to the complex Ashinas policies.

This takes us to the end of the seventh century, to the revolt of Qutlugh (Qutluγ) in 682, who was soon to become Ilterish Qaghan (Fig. 2). There is no question that the revolt was rooted in the south. The base of the Türks were the Yinshan and the Black River region, that is the region around Hohhot: Czeglédy demonstrated in 1962 that the Čoγay-quzï/yïš of the Tonyuquq inscription, where the rebels rallied and created their empire, were none other than the Yinshan (Čoγay has the same meaning as Yin, shaded, northern slope of a mountain) and that the capital of Qaraqum of the same inscription is Heisha cheng of the Chinese text (both meaning black sands), a settlement situated on the northern slopes of the Yinshan (Czeglédy 1962, 55–56)8. A simple list of all the topographical names mentioned in the Chinese sources shows beyond any reasonable doubt that, speaking of the geography, the second Eastern Empire was initially a revival of the empire of Xieli. From the Yinshan they raided over and over again all the northern prefectures of China during one generation (lists of raids in Liu 1958, 433–439; Skaff 2012, 302–312).

However, this is clearly described as a feature of the past in the Orkhon inscriptions. The recurrent message in these texts is the praise of the Ötüken, the residence of the Turkic qaghans in the final years of the Turkic Empire. Thus, one century after Tuldikh’s flight from north to south an unnoticed major, reversed geographical shift from south to north must have been taken place in the organization of the second Turkic Empire.

The reason clearly lies in a devastating strategic defeat of the Türks, which could not be explicitly recognized in such propaganda texts as the official inscriptions: in fact the Türks were forced to leave the Yinshan by a military move of the Chinese. In 708 the Chinese army cut the Yinshan Türks from the south by establishing three fortified points north of the Huanghe. We would like to know much more about this move but the text is not precise (Jiu Tangshu 194a: 5172; Liu 1958, 169). As the Yinshan and the Hohhot Valley have been the heart of the Turkic power since Tuldikh, this Chinese advance in the context of a revived Tang dynasty modified the balance of power. The consequence was immediate and we see a complete end to the annual raids of the Türks on the Chinese northern frontier. Never again would they come to pillage the prefectures of the northern Ordos region or northern Shanxi. The economic strategy of the Türk Empire had once again to change.
Such efficiency of these three fortified points is in a way quite mysterious. Qaraqum was on the other side of the Yinshan and no text mentions a direct conquest of the Yinshan proper. The Türks were not actually expelled from the Yinshan but left them. Maybe they were now too close to the Chinese border for it to be safe for the court. Or it might be that the Yinshan themselves were insufficient to sustain an actual imperial center if it was cut from the Huanghe and Heihe agricultural plains, or/and the raiding hinterland further south9. Conversely, the complete end of the raids after the building of these three forts even in regions much farther east along the frontier, which might have been reached from the north, suggests that in fact the Yinshan were the point of departure of the previous eastern raids, not the north.

However, this strategic defeat, whatever its economic and political importance, was mitigated by the evolution of the empire under the influence of Tonyuquq. Contrary to the early decades of the seventh century, the qaghans, and especially their main counselor Tonyuquq, did Show interest in the northern part of their empire before having to leave the southern part in 708. The chronology of this conquest of the north is not firmly known, it should have been within the reign of Ilterish (682–691), maybe in 685 or 686 before the great eastern campaign of 687 in Hebei – the conquest of the Ötüken is mentioned in Tonyuquq’s inscription just before some raids in Shandong up to the sea10. The importance of the northern part of the empire as a center of power is likewise unknown: Tonyuquq, who wrote after the events to defend his ideas, should be read cum grano salis when he noted that he “led the [qaghan?] and the Türk people to the Ötüken land”). What becomes clear, however, is that most of the activities of Ilterish Qaghan were concentrated to the south and east of the empire, not in the north: out of 19 raids attributed to Ilterish by Tonyuquq only five were against the Oghuz, and the first of these might have
taken place south of the Gobi. The north was first of all Tonyuquq’s domain and it is from there that he directed raids toward the Qirqiz and the On Ok: as Tonyuquq wrote himself “I settled in the Ötüken land”, not the qaghan.

Qapaghan Qaghan (691–716) had a broader vision and much more means: in 698 we seefor the first time the words 黑紗南庭 “Southern court at Qaraqum” in the Chinese sources (Jiu Tangshu 194a: 5169; Liu 1958, 162). Clearly in 698 a situation that had lasted over almost one century ended and the empire of Qapaghan was now established – as was the empire of the first Türks at its climax – on both sides of the Gobi. However, this was to survive only for a very short period as the Chinese move of 708 put an end to it. Having to withdraw to the north, and having no longer the usual resources, Qapaghan frantically tried to submit all unruly tribes in every direction except for the south. He used the Ötüken as a base, only to be killed a few years later in 716. The great 711–712 expedition to the west might have been triggered by the necessity to find an alternate place for pillages as China was now out of reach.

So it was up to Bilge Qaghan and Kül Tegin to make the best of a bad situation. In this regard, the message of the Orkhon inscription is pure political propaganda, and a close look at what they actually say does confirm this interpretation. When Bilge Qaghan inherited the throne, or rather took it from his cousin, the Türks were weak, poor, and desperate. According to the Or khon texts, they had had to migrate to the west and the east. These texts are long political appraisals of the Ötüken and Orkhon regions as opposed to the Čoγay mountain and the Tögültün Valley, because the relocation from the south was not voluntary and peaceful: “if you go to the south you will die” the text says, as opposed to “if you stay at the Ötüken then the caravans will come”. This is an attempt to justify the reversal of one century of Turkic history during which the Čoγay and Tögültün were the actual home of the Türks, an attempt to conceal that the change was ultimately effected by a Chinese move and a Turkic defeat. The political message of the Orkhon inscriptions is much clearer once put in this century-long perspective.

Similarly the call to Bumın and Ishtemi in these texts belongs to the same plea, to retrace a mystified Ötüken history of the Türks. In spite of the fascinating but both deceptive and highly political Orkhon inscriptions, the first nearly fifty years of the eighth century (685–743) might be regarded as a quite limited period of Turkic power in the north within a quarter of a millennium (603–840) of actual Tiele and Uyghur domination.

8 See also Suzuki 2011 for an attempt to clarify the location of Qaraqum as well as a depiction of the economic basis of the Türks in the Yinshan. My sincere thanks to Michael Drompp for drawing my attention to this article and sending it to me.

9 A side effect of this line of thought might be an attempt to identify the still mysterious Tögültün yazï of the Orkhon inscriptions. It is clear that it is associated with the Yinshan in a binomial expression “the Čoγay Mountain and the Tögültün plain”. Various scholars
have tried to localize this toponym (see Li 2011, WHO proposes a broad meaning of the whole upper region of the Huanghe including the Ordos plateau). I am wondering if the two alluvial valleys of the Huanghe and the Heihe are not to be understood under that
name: there is still at their confluence a county with the quite close name of Tuoketuo 托克托 – earlier Tuoketun 托克屯? –, and the easternmost fortified point was built around this area in 708. J. Jeong suggested to identify Tögültün yazï with the Tümed steppe (see Li 2011, 375 fn. 6), a solution rather similar to mine as the Tümed steppe is just north of Tuoketuo. The Chinese conquest would have cut the Čoγay from the Tögültün while both of them would have been necessary to sustain an imperial center south of the Gobi.

10 Differently Skaff 2012, 309 who would rather place the conquest of Mongolia between 688 and 693 due to the lack of raids on the Chinese frontier during these years.

2021 yılı başında yazdığım  Çağımızın İbni Sina’sı: Prof. Dr. İsmail Hakkı Aydın makalesine ilaveten yeni yazım ile birlikte

Yusuf Has Hacip

Katip Çelebi,

Evliya Çelebi’leri

de İsmail Hakkı Aydın hocamızın öncüleri olarak eklemiş oldum.

Evet hocamızın bizlere öğrettiği, zihnin kapasitesinin sonsuzluğudur. Bizler de zihnin üretkenliğini hep birlikte yaşıyoruz böylece abad oluyoruz.

Hocamızın gezdiği şehirler arasında Türkistan kıtasını en başa alıp taçlandırdım bunu da özellikle yaptım; lokomotif Türkistan ve bilgeleridir.

2024 yılında Türk Dünyası İbni Sina ödülünü kazanan alimlerimizden İsmail Hakkı Aydın hocamız ile ilgili olarak bu ödül vesilesiyle konuya değişik bir perspektif çerçevesi kapsamında bakarak hazırladığım yazıyı buraya sunmaktan onur duyuyorum.

Zaman zemin zihin perspektifinden hocamızı değerlendirdiğimizde, Hocamızın ayırt edici ve fevkalade zihinsel gücünün ve enerjisinin zeminlere de müthiş bir şekilde yansıdığını görmekteyiz.

Hocamız 7 Kıta ve 130 şehirde bir alimin ayak izini bırakmıştır. Bu inanılmaz bir rekordur gerçekten.

Ödülün Türk Dünyası adına veriliyor olması nedeniyle biz burada Türkistan‘ı da bir kıta olarak addedeceğiz ve burada hocamızın 130 şehri bilimsel faaliyet ve etkinlikler nedeniyle ziyaret ettiğini not ediyoruz.

Hocamızın bilim peşinde koşturmaca içerisinde olan Türkistan âlimleri geleneğinden günümüze ulaştığını, bu geleneği günümüzde bizzat uyguladığını, yerine getirdiğini görmekteyiz.

Felsefe Atlası kitabının yazarı İsviçreli felsefeci Elmar Holenstein’ın kitabını incelediğimizde 7.yüzyılda Ebu Hanife’den başlayarak, 17 Türk düşünürlerinin bilim peşindeki seyahat ve hareketlerini incelediğimizde toplamda 55 şehre gidip geldiklerini görmekteyiz.

Bu şehirler arasında başı çekenler Bağdat, Mekke, Semerkant, Nişapur şehirleridir.

Bilim insanlarının, düşünürlerin zemindeki hareketleri zihinlerde derin izler bırakmaktadır ve yeni kavramların, yeni fikirlerin oluşumunu ve gelişimini hızlı bir biçimde teşvik etmektedir.

Hocamız yurt dışı bilim seyahatlerine ilaveten ülkemizde de 60’a yakın şehirde üniversitelerde konferanslar vermektedir. Hocamız halkın içinde olmayı çok sevmektedir, yeni bilgilerini, bilimini halkın tüm katmanları ile paylaşmak ve bu şekilde halktan aldığı sorularla, tepkilerle yeni bilgilere doğru yol almak hocamız için büyük bir mutluluk kaynağıdır.

Hocamız konferanslarını hep ayakta vermektedir, oturarak verdiği bir konferans söz konusu değildir. Tek başınadır ve saatler boyu konuşarak bilgi aktarma etkinliğini devam ettirme konusunda sonsuz bir enerji sahibidir.

Tahmin etmiyorum ki ülkemizde böylesine ikinci bir örnek söz konusu olabilsin.

Halk ile direkt yakın temas kurmak, iletişimde bulunmak ülkemizde profesörlerin bilim insanlarının pek de sıcak bakmadığı bir davranış biçimidir, hocamız tüm bu kalıpları kırıp yıkıp geçmektedir, çünkü bilginin kaynağının halktan neşet ettiğini hissetmektedir.

Uzmanlık konusu olan beyinle ilgili olarak, bağlantıların hatta cansız varlıkların da bu bağlantıda etkisi olduğunu bilen bir kişi olarak sürekli bir biçimde insanlarla bağlantı içerisinde olmayı tercih etmektedir. Demek ki, halka uzak durarak bağlantılara karşı soğuk yaklaşmak aslında bilimselliğin dışına çıkmak şeklindedir.

Bu gerçeği kurucu sosyologlarımızdan Ziya Gökalp “Deha halktadır. Ne alacaksanız halktan alacaksınız” tarzında ifade etmişti.

Hocamızın yazdığı kitapların uzunluğu yakında boyunu aşmak üzeredir.

Ülkemizde her konuda olduğu gibi Ortodoks diyebileceğimiz tarzda, skolastik diyebileceğimiz tarzda yaklaşımlar söz konusudur. Buna tipik bir örnek ise bilginin saklanacak bir meta olduğu tarzındaki tutumdur. Hocamız ise tam tersine, bilgilerini çağlayanlar misali halkla paylaşmaktadır, konferanslarda sürekli bu bilgileri halka aktarmaktadır.

ABD’li yazar Frederick Starr, Kayıp Aydınlanma kitabında Türkistan kültürünün mucizesini inci örneği ile açıklamaktadır.

“Orta Asyalıların uzun süredir Hindistan ve Ortadoğu’dan ithal ettikleri inciler, kolay yetişmezler. Çoğu istiridye incinin özünü oluşturacak kum tanesiyle hiç karşılaşmaz bile. Bazıları kumu içine alır, ama hiçbir şey olmaz, birtakım istiridyelerin ise bünyesi kabul etmez kumu, süreçte canını yitirir. 

Bu, Orta Asya kültürünün mucizesidir ki yüzyıllar içinde hem yabancı kum tanesini almaya açık oldu hem de inci üretmek için kullanacağı kapasiteye sahipti. Bu, dış dünyaya açık olmak ve yeniliği sadece özümsemek yerine üzerinde çalışıp uyarlamak anlamına da gelir. 

Bu durum hüküm sürdükçe Orta Asya entelektüel yaşam ve kültür olarak global anlamda ön saflardaydı. Ve yapısal olarak, ne zaman ki yabancı olanı karşılama ve inciye çevirme yetisini yitirdi, o zaman medeniyeti çöktü.”

Bilgi ve Gönül

Hocamız ruhunun derinliklerinde taşıdığı sevgiyi bilgi ile kaynaştırarak, insanlara bir inci olarak sunmaktadır. Klasik eserimiz olan Yusuf Has Hacip’in 1000’li yıllarda ilk kitabımız olarak eserleştirdiği, yazma eser haline getirdiği Kutadgu Bilig kitabında, gönül ve bilgi ilişkisini bakın nasıl açıklamış. Yusuf Has Hacip bilgeliğin şifresini Kutadgu Bilig 211-213 beyitlerde vermiş.

“İnsan gönlü dibi olmayan bir deniz gibidir; bilgi onun dibinde yatan inciye benzer. İnsan inciyi denizden çıkarmadıkça, o, ister inci olsun ister çakıl taşı fark etmez. Kara toprak altındaki altın, taştan farksızdır, oradan çıkınca beylerin başına tuğ tokası olur.“

Kutadgu Bilig ss.211-213

Yusuf Has Hacip, “Bilgi, dibi olmayan bir deniz gibi olan insan gönlünün dibinde yatan incidir” der iken, gönülün sonsuz nitelikli derinliğini ve bilginin gönül içre olduğunu açıklıyor.

Demek bilginin yeri gönüldür. Gönülden olmayan da bilgi değildir. Gönülde olan bilgi de bilgelerdedir. Taşıyıcılar aktaranlar bilgelerdir. Bilge bilgisini gönlünde taşıyandır. Gönülsüz bilgi de bilgi sayılmaz.

Çelebiler Çağı

Kalender ve Çelebi olan alimimiz, sanki Çelebiler çağından Evliya Çelebi ve Katip Çelebi’nin zamanlarından günümüze ulaşmış gibi gözükmektedir. Evliya Çelebi seyahat ettiği 4500 şehir kasaba ve köye gitmenin öncesinde bizlere bir mesel anlatmıştır. İstanbul’da Eminönü’nde Ahi Çelebi Camii’nde “şefaat ya Resulallah” diyecek iken “seyahat ya Resulallah” demenin neticesinde Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nun sayısız noktalarına, şehirlerine ulaşmış bulunmaktadır.

Aynı şekilde Çelebiler Çağ’ından çıkıp gelen Kâtip Çelebi de yine bilgi peşinde Osmanlı coğrafyası sınırları içerisindeki sayısız kütüphaneler yapıp çıkmış, kitapları edinmiş,  kaynakçalarını yapmış ve günümüze kalan klasik eserlerini ortaya çıkarmıştır.

Demek ki bilmemin zemini kaynağı Türkistan coğrafyasıdır ve “Türkistan coğrafyasında en değerli yeraltı kaynaklarımız, hazinelerimiz bilgelerimizdir ve sonsuz değer taşımaktadırlar”. Burada İbn-i Sina’nın yanı sıra değinebileceğimiz bir alimimiz daha söz konusudur; Yusuf Has Hacip.

İsmail Hakkı Aydın hocamız da tavır ve davranışları ile Yusuf iken yazdığı Kutadgu Bilig eseri ile Has Hacip seviyesine yükselen, ilk yazılı eserimizi ortaya koyan alimimiz gibi bilginin peşine koşuşturan bir alim olarak çağımızda yaşayan bir Yusuf Has Haciptir.

Yusuf Has Hacip’in yaşadığı Karahanlılar devri çok sayıda klasik eserlerimizin ortaya konduğu bir devirdir ve ileride Türkiye Cumhuriyeti’ni düşünsel açıdan değerlendirecek olan incelemeciler ise İsmail Hakkı Aydın’ın eserleri ile karşılaştıklarında aynı duyguları yaşayacaklardır.

İsmail Hakkı Aydın hocamız sürekli olarak Kutadgu Bilig’de tarif edilen incileri denizlerin diplerinden çıkartarak gençlerimizin ve bilim sevdalısı insanlarımızın yürek ve gönüllerine birer hediye olarak sunmaktadır.

Eski Türk Yazıtları Sözlüğü

Türkçe diğer Turan dilleri olan Japonca, Korece, Moğolca, Mançuca gibi diller ile birlikte Pasifik Okyanusu kıyısındaki Liao Nehri civarında bundan 9000 yıl önce gelişmeye başlayan bir dildir. Böylece çok uzun bir geçmişi olan bu dil, Türklerin ana meslekleri olan hayvancılık ve at biniciliği gibi meslekler sayesinde büyük bir hızla ilerleyerek Avrupa’nın içlerine ve Afrika’nın kuzeyine kadar yayılmıştır. Türklerin, Avrasya kıtasında ve Afrika’nın kuzeyinde hızla yayılmalarının temel sebebi savaş koşullarında hızlı iletişim sağlayan dilleridir.

Türk dili iletişim gücü son derece gelişkin olan bir dildir ve bu sayede diğer dillere karşı baskın çıkarak egemen hale gelmiştir. Türkiye coğrafyasında da söz konusu olan budur ve sadece Türkistan coğrafyasında değil, Türkiye coğrafyasında da Türk dili coğrafyanın bütünleşmesini  sağlamıştır. Türkçe pazarların dili haline gelmiş ve pazarda geçerli olan bir dil, çok daha hızla yayılmıştır.

Moğolistan, Orhun Selenge havzası, Sibirya güneyinde Yenisey Nehiri havzası ve Altay Dağları civarındaki nehirler boyunca gelişen Türkçe, yazıtlar yoluyla granit taşlara ve kayalara yazılmak suretiyle, ilk yazılı izlerini bizlere sunmaktadır. Böylece izleyebildiğimiz kök coğrafyadaki kök kavramlarımızdır. Yazıtların sözlüğü 1200 civarında kelimeyi kapsamaktadır. Bu kelimeler içerisinde fiiller ağırlıklı olarak gözükmektedir. 

Göçer yaşantı süren Türkler böylece hareketli bir yaşam tarzını sürdürmüşlerdir. Asya’nın içlerinden Avrupa’nın içlerine 8000 km bir uzaklık söz konusudur, her yüzyılda sürekli göç edilmek suretiyle bu şekilde istasyon istasyon ilerlenmiştir.

Türk dilinin dinamizmi Türk kültürünü de özgün bir konuma getirmiş ve bu kültür Turan coğrafyalarının ağırlıklı bir kültürü olarak binlerce yıldır geçerliliğini korumaktadır. Türk dili matematiksel ve felsefi bir özelliğe sahiptir. Bu özellikler ise dilin üretken altyapısının ana unsurlarıdır.

İlk kez yazıtlarla yazıya geçirilen dildeki güçlü ifadeler temelde söze dayalı kültürlerinin gelişkinliğini ortaya koymaktadır. Bunun üzerinde uzun boylu düşünülmesi önem kazanmaktadır, o halde güçlü bir kültür yazılı hale geldiğinde de gelişkin ve güçlü ifadelerle ortaya çıkmaktadır.

Yazıtların zirvesi ise Tonyukuk yazıtıdır. Dikkat çekici bir biçimde Yazıtlar hep nehir kenarlarındaki yerleşimlerde kayda geçirilmektedir.

9000 yıllık zaman derinliği dilin yapısını güçlendirerek zeminlerde ışık hızı ile ilerlemesine ve bu şekilde zihinlerde kalıcı olmasına neden olmuştu. Derinlerdeki kök Türkçe o halde köklerinden filizlenerek ana hedefimiz olan muasır medeniyet seviyesini aşma hususunda Türklerin ana dayanağı olmalıdır. 

Emperyalizm tarafından dayatılan siyasal dincilik bizleri mezhep ve tarikat, cemaat bölünmeleri üzerinden bataklığın içine çekivermiştir, o halde bu bataklıktan çıkmanın yolu dildaşlık üzerinden ilerleyerek tüm Turan coğrafyasındaki halklarla birlikte Ural-Altay dil ailesi kökünden geldiğimiz için kültür ve dil birliği tesis ederek bunun üzerinden işbirliklerini de geliştirmektir.

İsmail Gaspıralı’nın 20. yüzyıl başında ortaya koyduğu vizyona sahip çıkılmalıdır; dilde, işte, fikirde birlik vizyonu ana yörüngemizdir.

Batılı stratejistler tarafından, Ruslar da dahil olmak üzere, Avrasya kıtası olarak adlandırılan coğrafya aslen Turan coğrafyası, Turan kıtasıdır. O halde bizlere düşen Turandaşlarımız ile birlikte dildaşlık üzerinden giderek bir birliği tesis etmektir. Turan dillerinin tarihi 9000 yılı aşkın bir tarihtir. 

Batı, bu somut Turan gerçeğinin karşısına, istihbarat örgütleri tarafından üretilen Pan-Turancılık ve Hint-Avrupa dil tezleri ile çıkmıştır. Avrupa dillerinin böyle uzun bir geçmişe dayanan tarihleri olmadığı için kendilerini eski Hint medeniyetinin dillerine bir türlü yaslamak istemişlerdi, fakat orada da karşılarına çıkan Dravid dilleri, Tamilce, Urduca, Sümerce gibi Turan kökenli Hint kıtası dilleridir.
