The motherland is considered a sacred place where the navel blood was shed, and it forms a feeling of patriotism in a person towards this land. As our enlightened grandfather Abdulla Avloni said: "The city and country where a person was born and grew up is called that person's homeland. Everyone loves the place where he was born and grew up more than his life... Just as we Turkestans love our homeland more than our lives, Arabs love Arabia, hot sandy deserts, Eskimos love the coldest snow and ice lands more than other places. If they didn't like it, they would have left their homeland and emigrated to the easy lands of Turan with good air." Indeed, the Motherland is the greatest, priceless heritage, the dearest memory that remains from ancestors to generations.
To put it bluntly, love and loyalty to the Motherland begins with attachment. The sense of belonging is a bond that firmly connects a person with the world, with his people, with the Motherland.
He has the power to wake up a sleeping person and lead him to a single goal.
As a person grows up
his sense of patriotism and imagination will expand. First of all, the house, then the neighborhood, the village or the city, and the whole country are understood from the heart as the Motherland.
The feeling of belonging to the homeland is a sacred value. It is a feeling that keeps a person from the heart of social orphanhood, a place of spiritual maturity, a school of life, a center of well-being and happiness. Maulana Fuzuli's words, "I have one life, even if I had a thousand lives, I would spend them all for the Motherland" are priceless patriotism for each of us.
The opportunities, glory, and prestige of the country's prosperity and development are also related to the level of the sense of belonging to the Motherland of the people of this nation. For our ancestors, love for the Motherland and country was considered a sacred feeling. They are Motherland, people's interest, national
they put the issue of dignity and honor above all else, and even considered it an honor for them to sacrifice their lives for this holy goal.
Love of the country - besides glorifying it,
it is to be able to protect its dignity, its independence. It is known from history that Sheikh Najmuddin Kubro was a true patriot and brave hero. When the nation faced difficult times, he considered it an honor to leave his country and save his life. He fought valiantly on the battlefields against the Mongol invasion and died.
Patriotism can become a decisive factor of development only when it is manifested in our actions, not just in words. In the course of the rapid reforms being implemented in the new Uzbekistan, it is especially important that the patriotic faith is manifested in our practical work, in our active citizenship position. It is necessary to combine awareness and dedication in the work of every person.
Consistent reforms implemented in new Uzbekistan have made raising the feeling of patriotism and national pride in the young generation to a new level the most important need of the Third Renaissance. It should be noted that the education of patriotism among young people and raising the national spirit is still an urgent issue.
For example, in our country, special efforts have been made to educate young people in the spirit of patriotism, respect for our national traditions and values, to bring up a spiritually mature and physically healthy generation, and to protect their rights and interests.
At the same time, the analysis of the situation in the field and the activities carried out shows that the current issues affecting a wide range of young people, especially the creation of suitable conditions for the non-organized youth to find their place in life, providing them with comprehensive support, providing career guidance and employment, and encouraging their initiatives, are not organized at the required level.
Protecting the motherland is considered the sacred duty of a man. That's why our nation has always paid special attention to the boy's courage, his physical health, his spiritual maturity, and his upbringing in the spirit of loyalty to the Motherland. Even the soul of the baby lying in the cradle was instilled with the feeling of love and loyalty to the motherland through the grace of our mothers.
Love of country -
to protect its borders from various threats, to love the language, beliefs, and customs of the people living there. It is very important to educate the young generation in the same spirit, especially to form their moral immunity against destructive ideology and foreign ideas. Because if we protect the mind and psyche of the growing young generation from the influence of any harmful ideologies, and form in them high feelings such as love, loyalty, and duty to the Motherland, we will create a solid foundation for our country to occupy a leading position in the world community.
Our people highly value peace and consider it as an important guarantee for the realization of their dreams and good intentions. In this sense, in the current difficult and extremely complicated period, when various riots and bloodsheds are escalating in different regions of the world, it is worth recognizing that the employees of the internal affairs bodies of our country are selflessly serving in order to ensure peace and security of citizens and maintain the stability of the social and political situation. After all, this is also a form of loyalty to the Motherland. After all, this dear Motherland belongs to all of us, and protecting it carefully is our original filial duty.
The employees of the internal affairs bodies serve selflessly around the clock to ensure the peace and tranquility of the country. Their hearts are full of love for the country and devotion to duty. He feels from his heart that he is serving his life in the fight against crime, thinking about the peace of this country.
In conclusion, in the creation of the Third Renaissance, patriotism leads every person to respect the country where he was born and raised, to care about its economic, social, political, cultural, and spiritual development, to make his due contribution to its development, to burn his soul to preserve the independence of his country, and if necessary, to dedicate his life to it. is a criterion of high spirituality.
