The '''Nordan Symposia''' is inspired by the capacity demonstrated by persons in every [[time]] and place when they host the [[wonder]] leading them to inquire more deeply into the [[nature]] of being [[human]]. While such questions, along with their ensuing [[dialogues]], may become enshrined in celebrated literature of any civilization, acting then as inspiration to further inquiry, too often these can be found serving illusions woven in '[[authoritative]]' answers more than deeper inquiry, closing with certainty the doors to what remains an uncertain yet intriguing process of discovery unfolding within us all .

To mitigate the inevitable tendency implicit in [[cultural formation]], the [[Nordan]] Symposia eschews presumptions upon authority even as its participants seek to identify, incorporate, and integrate what are found to be the most helpful resources freely available throughout this world that is truly becoming a real [[cosmopolis]]. Through the means of this [[Open Source]] platform, it is hoped that the common threads of inquiry woven into every field of human endeavor might become more vivid and seen as they are in truth, related in the most meaningful way to the primary question of "who am I" or "who are we" to take upon ouselves the name - ''homo sapiens''?
