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 the celebrated literature of any civilization acting then as inspiration to further inquiry, too often these can be found serving the illusions of [[power]] wearing '[[authoritative]]' answers more than a genuine [[authority]] showing the need for deeper inquiry. These foreclosures upon what remains forever an uncertain but intriguing process of discovery only underscore the value of a course of learning exceeding the limits of [[space]].

These facades of certainty stand in contrast to what remains an uncertain but intriguing process of discovery that underscores the value of a course of learning exceeding the limits of any [[space]].

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 slowly becoming a real [[cosmopolis]]. Through the means of this [[Open Source]] platform, it is hoped that the common threads of inquiry woven through every field of human endeavor might become more vivid and seen as they are in truth, meaningfully related to the enduring question of "who am I" or "who are we" to have taken upon ouselves the name - ''homo sapiens''?
