The first Sinologist, Tonyukuk 716, was born in China, he internalized China.
From 646 to 2016, 1370 years of Sinology is a synthesis of East (Chinese Indian) West (Rumi) that met with our line of thought in Indology, Cemil Meriç, and the Occidental school in Rumeli Dimetoka. Our high flow cascade from the Orhun, Indus, Ganges and Meriç rivers carried us from the steppes to the waterside.The Westerners, on the other hand, named their plundering journeys to exploit Indian resources as much as possible, and named the robbers as Explorers, and named the Asian Indian people they encountered as Indians.
Cemil Meriç is our greatest Westerner. While researching the foundation of Western Civilization, he came across Hind and devoted his first book to Hind; Indian Literature (1964).
So the starting point of Occidentalism is in India and China; It is necessary to be a connoisseur in Indology and Sinology.
It never occurred to the Young Turks and their successors to look at Europe from India.
While Europe went to Indian sources, we turned to European sources.
Civilization structures that the Turks encountered as a result of their journeys that lasted for millennia; Together with China, India, Iran, Islam and Rum, they gifted a Civilization Alliance to humanity, and Westernization means adding the missing piece of Western (Europe) to this alliance.
The most refined meanings and interpretations of Çini, Hindi and Rumi found their meaning in the Alliance of Civilizations formed by the Turks.
Westernization, in this sense, is actually a geographical orientation that the Turks stubbornly and resolutely followed, that the ancient Greeks (Ionia), Old India (Gazneli, Timur, Mughal) and Islam (Khorasan, Transoxiana, Mesopotamia, Andalusia) that the West was fed spiritually have always been. Its synthesis was transferred to the West and created by the Turks.
Kitab al-Muhtasar fil Hisab al-Hind , the first work written on the Indian account of Muhammad b. It is the Kitâbü’l-Ĥisâbi’l-Hindî by Mûsâ al-Harizmî (d. 232/847). The most important feature of the work is that for the first time in the Islamic world, Indian numerals and the decimal numeral system were used together with zero. Western mathematicians learned to use the positional and ten-based Indian calculus instead of the calculus system they have been using since the Roman period, and they named this system “algorism”, which they derived from the name of Hârizmî.
Hellenism, which was imposed as a state policy through İnönü, broke the Turks from their historical roots. Cemil Meriç’s Corpus of India

Let’s ensure our loyalty and permanence to our monumental, transcendent thinkers, which started with Tonyukuk and crowned with Cemil Meriç, with doctorates. Our Thought Journey, which was started by the wise Tonyukuk with the Stone Inscription on the edge of the Orkhon river in the far East, with the Last Thinker Cemil Meriç’s Collection of volumes in the westernmost part of the Meriç; By discovering the East within the West, he united both worlds through our Civilization.While the dark gladiators with the title AYDIN darken the agenda, AMA (blind) Cemil Meriç, on the 100th anniversary of his birth, illuminates our millennials.
http://leventagaoglu.blogspot.com.tr/2016/11/bilge-tonyukuk-yazlar.htmlSo these are the main poles.East West North South.
Four-Pole Civilization..
Starting with the first thinker Tonyukuk, the Mission in the axis of the Last Thinker Cemil Meriç is an important service that should be done to the country in terms of directing to the right resources.
Tonyukuk grew up with the Chinese culture and Cemil Meriç grew up with the French culture, but they are locals.
They are neither Chinese nor French.
We need to show this to our people.
“Understanding the thinkers is possible by first identifying where and how they are positioned. Cemil Meriç, deep Muslim era (1917-1925), chauvinistic nationalism era (1925-1936), socialist era (1936-1938), purgatory era (1938-1960), Hindu era (1960-1964), only Ottoman era (1964) During the years of intellectual transformation he lived with the stages of -) he made an effort to position himself in this world as an intellectual with an inquiring, questioning and criticizing understanding. In this study, considering Meriç’s thought stages, the concepts of “place” and “nativeness” will be discussed first, and then the reflections of the idea of ”nativeness” in the mental world of the writer, who is an intellectual worker, will be emphasized. http://edebiyat.gumushane.edu.tr/user_files/files/Sempozyum.pdf
WE DON’T KNOW INDIA. He started to bring us news with his works “Indian Literature” published in 1964 and “On the Verge of a World” published in 1976.

We are in the center of these two countries. The Mediterranean is the juncture of East and West. Humanity is in the grip of a terrible depression. Thousands of years of harmony between Kosmos and anthropos has come to an end. Europe forgot itself while conquering matter.

- “The land of the Pharaohs is a magnificent pile of stones, the mammoths rising along the Euphrates are underground, Athens is a dream, Rome is a legend… The Indian has been around for five thousand years.
