  • Mother Earth by Chingiz Aitmatov
    Mother Earth by Chingiz Aitmatov 1 Father, I know not where you lie buried. I dedicate this to you, Torekul Aitmatov. Mother, you brought us up, the four of us, I dedicate this to you, Nagima Aitmatova. 2 1 In her white, freshly-laundered dress, dark quilted jacket and white kerchief she slowly walks along the path through the stubble. There is not a soul anywhere. Summer is over. No voices can be heard in the field, no lorries raise a trail of dust on the dirt roads, no harvesters can be seen on the horizon, and the herds have not yet been put out to graze in the stubble. Beyond the grey high road the autumn steppe fades away into the distance. Rows of smoky clouds move soundlessly above it. The wind sweeps soundlessly over the field, rippling the feather-grass and dry weeds and slips off soundlessly towards the river. There is a smell of wet grass drenched by morning hoarfrost. The earth is relaxing after the harvest. Bad weather will soon set in, the rains will come, the first snow will cover the earth and blizzards will rage. But now it is quiet and peaceful. Let's not disturb her. She has stopped and gazes about with the dull eyes of old age. "Hello, Field," she calls softly. "Hello, Tolgonai. So you've come? You've got much older. Your hair is white. And you carry a staff." "Yes, I'm getting old. Another year has passed, and you, Field, have had another harvest. Today is the day of commemoration." "I know.

  • Introduction the Vision Quest Tarot Is Designed to Increase Our
    Introduction The Vision Quest Tarot is designed to increase our awareness of cosmic forces and how they influence our individual paths. As we go through the different cycles of our lives, our relationship to the cosmos changes many times. Changed perspectives, brought about by every new phase, naturally shift our focus and expand our views. It is like slowly familiarizing ourselves with the countless facets, multidimensional light—receptors and colors of a great precious stone. By and by we recognize different aspects of this living jewel that continually reveals still other, yet unknown angles of itself through which we can perceive the world. And all the while we discover new aspects of our own sub- or unconscious and learn to understand its messages, which the Tarot depicts by using corresponding images. With its powerfully clear and simple symbolism, the Vision Quest Tarot easily carries us into a space of deeper, inner understanding. We recognize ourselves quickly in it vivid, archetypal images. Since these are not foreign to us, they engender no fear. On the contrary, we spontaneously connect and feel at home with them. At this point I’ll happily repeat for those who have never come in contact with the Tarot, that there are no evil or unlucky cards! Their meaning constantly evolves with each individual. The pictures point to a coming cycle that may already be strongly felt, a somewhat simpler or more complex phase in one’s life, or a new learning process. Since the symbols of Vision Quest Tarot are inspired by Native American wisdom, they contain not only the spirit of the traditional Tarot but that of the tribal shamans and the spirit of the medicine wheel.

The Award’s main objective since the beginning has been to reward excellence in education to reach highest global levels. This award recognises the achievements of students and teachers in the United Arab Emirates and the Gulf region and spotlights their contribution to boosting the education system.

We are convinced that the building of intellectual capacity promises a bright future, and we look at education as the key factor in achieving prosperity for people across the globe.
