This is quite amusing.

Greeting to the participants of the XXVII International Congress of
Psychology from SGTP.
We are greeting the most imposing meeting of our human
cognition branch i.e. the psychology.
The mankind is asking questions - what the human being?
Psychology as a science answers this age-long question. Does
the mankind understand itself? What role does the psychology
play in the human self-cognition? At the beginning of the third
millennium the mankind is in the age of healthy youth. Who knows
when the period of its grown-up being, of its experienced wisdom
will come. Maybe the mankind will stay as inexperienced youth
with the consciousness full with arrogant delusions, but without
definite reference points and plans for the future and full of
energy? The future is obscurity. The role of the psychology as a
science is to help the mankind and every particular person to
understand himself. This role is very significant and noble. The
purpose of psychology is to teach the mankind and to give the
mankind the knowledge about what to do with oneself, how to
manage with this tremendous amount of knowledge, to teach
filtering the essence of knowledge and applying it in everyday life,
how to live with oneself in peace, how not to lose oneself, how to
create oneself and to be torn from oneself, how to be good with
the other people.
That is only psychology that solves a lot of everyday problems
and it's only psychology that will help a particular person and the
whole mankind. Psychology will help to cope with stresses (and
the probability of them is increasing) more effectively in every its
realizations. Psychology will show possible ways of getting self-
trusting, to help a person to choose his believes freely.
We wish you success in the researching the endless and terribly
complicated subject of our science.
Let the belief into the endless possibilities of cognition, into the
triumph of the scientific spirit accompany your way in the science,
let your life in the science accompany with the flow of productive
ideas.
