A Sense of Pride With Love

Interviewer: Hello Mr. Salami, welcome to Mashhad branch of congress60. How do you evaluate today’s co-guide exam?                                                        

Mr. Salami: Hello friends, I am Majid, a traveler. The exam was held much better than previous years. I had good feeling when I first came to this branch.  My attendance at this branch evoked strong memories of those days when 5-6 members held Congress60 weekly educational workshops in a real estate agency. But today, approximately all of the 180 members of congress60 (both  travelers and companions) who enrolled for this examination, attended Mashhad (Ferdowsi) branch of congress60, 1 or 2 hours before starting the examination. Their hopeful attendance at the co-guide examination originated from their high level of worldview. Established in 2011, this branch seems to inspire a sense of pride with love.

Interviewer: Mr. Salami, what is your idea about the discipline of participants in co-guide examination?

Mr. Salami: Fortunately both participants and organizers were disciplined in a good way. The examination was greatly performed and I thank all of those who helped us well.

 Interviewer: Mr. Salami, in the previous years, worldview and technical questions were given to the participants separately, why were the participants given all two groups of questions simultaneously this year?                                                       

Mr.Salami: Congress60’s strategy has improved according to proper experiences we have gained in the previous exams. Thus the organizers decided to give all of questions to the participants simultaneously. Anyway it was a logical decision which was designed to satisfy all of the participants and fortunately was successful.   

  Interviewer: What is your advice for those who will succeed and those who fail in the exam?                                                                                       

 Mr. Salami: I suggest those whose attempt may fail in serving as co-guides not to leave congress60 resources (books, CD’s , pamphlets, etc) till they can be successful at their next attempts. I hope those who will succeed achieve what they want.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 

Interviewer: What is your idea about the improvement of Mashhad branch (Ferdowsi)?                                                                                   

Mr. Salami: As I said, this branch was established in 2011 by a few congress60 members. But today we observe that there are more than 180 volunteers for taking co-guide exam in this branch. It is pretty good news.                       

Interviewer: How do you evaluate the presence of companions in the examination?                                                      

Mr. Salami: The presence of companions in Congress60 is of great importance for the redemption of their travelers. Companions are represented as the wings of the travelers for flying in Congress60. In this branch more than 40 companions took part in the exam. If we want to establish new branches of congress60, we necessarily need educated companions in order to train other members in Congress60.                               

Interviewer: Who will correct the exam papers?

Mr. Salami: It will be done by the founder of congress60, Mr. Hosein Dezhakam.

Interviewer: Thank you, Mr. Salami, for giving us your precious time.
