Abstract :in general, the term \"bilge\" refers to a person who is able to distinguish right from wrong, whose opinion is considered true, who is supported by sprituel-beings, who is virtuous, self-controlled, loyal and persuasive. When the term \"bilge\" is used for a leader, it means state-establesher, legislator and who raises life standarts. Simi- , larly, the term \"bilge kagan\" may be compared with Plato\'s term \"king-philosopher\"; therefore, it may be said that the term \"bilge\" precedes Farabi and İbn Sina\'s concepts like al-hakim, al-faylasuf.
