The beating heart of Congress60 and its day by day progress is due to the services.
The 10th session of the 6th round of the coordination meetings between guides and attendants of female travelers was administrated on August 28th, 2022 at 10:00 a.m. by Mr. Dezhakam as the guest speaker and Mrs. Maryam as the secretary.
Hello friends, I am Hossein a traveler.
I’m fine and hope you are keeping well too. The coordination meetings that are held now and then are very good, since we get together to unite our words, intentions and goals in order to move forward with the essential preparation. At the moment, there is a strong demand for the increase and expansion of female traveler branches, which unfortunately I cannot agree with. Even in some cities, the place is ready, but it's not just the matter of money and place! Above all, we have to keep our current branches strong in the best possible way, because this will be a role model for others.
A number of female travelers visited Kerman, Isfahan, and Mashhad last week and checked the agencies of these three cities during a week. So this is a very important issue. This year Kerman and Hidaj agencies were launched and we've separated Tehran female travelers into two groups, Academy and Rose. There are other cities as well.
Authorities asked us to expand our branches. So we have to be stronger and more determined every day. Our role is like a bulldozer paving the way for others. For example, a woman who lives in Shiraz or Jahrom, and she is an opium user should go to the Tehran agencies for treatment. This is very difficult, but we have no other choice at the moment. Therefore, in each section, in whatever we do, we must put egoism and arrogance away. We should find ways to help and serve others.
This year, 8,800 people have registered in the guidance exam, even though not everyone can participate. This is a very strange number. As Mr. William says, serving in Congress 60 is like the heart of Congress. The beating heart of Congress 60 and its day by day progress is due to the services. 8,800 people have signed up and have been reading, training and learning from almost six months to a year, crying to be accepted and to serve for free.
Now that we have earned the serving position of guidance, let's not waste it. Let's put away the unpleasant behavior hidden in our Invisible side and move forward with humanity and kindness. Now, we passed the stage when addicts used to sit in basements, talking and laughing. It will be no use merely applauding and complimenting ourselves pointlessly. We have to enter the world of research and we have taken great steps in it.
We have presented three very strong articles on gene expression changes, leukemia, and the effect of D.SAP on COVID19. With these three articles, we received views as much as the person who has presented 500 articles in the scientific fields. A French summary of the article [the effect of D.SAP on Coronavirus published in the US], was posted on websites in the first three hours. Two days later, the news agency of the Thailand Ministry of Health published an article that Iranian scientists solved the problem of the coronavirus. This article has been greatly heeded and this is an honor for our country.
Iran has had eminent scientists in medicine and has a long history, we're moving on this track and in the near future, we will publish the DST article and it will be tested on incurable diseases. Therefore, if we want to move [forward] in this field, we should try to bring students up and impart good teachings with all our strength.
The expansion of Congress is a very important issue. There are many volunteers to serve, but for this, we must have a lot of experience, be strong, powerful and diligent. We must put the compliments and unnecessary words of praise aside and observe the rules. We are not allowed to talk aggressively with others, and we should be determined in our work. In the meeting of female traveler assistants, I said that it is up to you to select anyone, and it depends on how much you accept each other. We have to be like an orchestra, although it is true that each of you plays a different instrument, but in the end you all play the same song and you have to be in harmony with each other. The first thing anyone should consider is how much they can interact with others, how much do the assistants accept each other? Our diplomacy should be such that we can be compatible with all people. We can establish other branches, as long as we cooperate and only if our aim is merely to help others. We should know that we have been valuable people whom God has allowed to serve.
The largest association of addiction specialists in the United States of America consists of more than one hundred thousand therapists, assistants, psychiatrists and doctors. This year is their fiftieth gathering and Mr. William White will speak on behalf of the Congress 60 with two eminent American doctors and they'll talk about how Congress 60 could be able to combine medical, psychological, social, spiritual treatments and worldview to make a package for treatment.
Some people only seek medical treatment and some others only seek psychological treatment. One group is spiritual and another does what they want. This meeting is an experience of how [different countries] can imitate Congress 60 at the global level. Mr. William, who was elected as the watchman [Dideban] of international relations of Congress60, will be present in this council.
September 15 Guidance examination will be held across the country.. Because the September 11 was the week of agent and border-guards, I didn't want the candidates have the stress of the exam in this celebration, so I postponed the celebration. Also, the gifting shawls to agents and border-guards of the new courses will be postponed until after the celebration so that we can appreciate and thank the previous border-guards and agents who have served for 14 months. Even those who have received their shawls will start serving after the agent and border-guard’s week.
In general, we are moving in very good conditions and also sports centers know us more. On Friday, the assistant of the Ministry of Sports and the General Director of Physical Education of Tehran were present in Taleghani Park. With the running competitions we held, we are known in a different way and the views towards us changed.
