The Nordan Symposia is inspired by the human capacity demonstrated well in one known as Nordan, the Kenite living in the 5th millennia B.C.E.[1] who, with his "band of earnest students"[2] residing at Salem under the tutelage of Melchizedek, posed such brilliant questions as to earn an expanded revelation of truth that far transcended the time in which they lived. Likewise, this Symposia is dedicated to advance the study of humanity[3] indivisible from our indwellingdivinity. Such inquiry celebrate the limitless range of fact, meaning, and value before and within us whose exploration is the joy of every child of God.
One material counterpart of our shared discovery in this Symposia is the corpora, consisting of the Forum[4], a Primary Corpus, and a Secondary Corpus. The Forum is an arena where discussions may ensue, and for this purpose, an electronic platform is provided as a virtual counterpart to our respective dialogues transpiring 'on the ground'. The Primary Corpus is composed of work attributed to divine sources while the Secondary Corpus is comprised of work attributed to human sources.
Often, finite distinctions between human and divine are arbitrary to some degree given the observation and experience of the divine living within humanity and the human dwelling within the Source of all that is divine. Indeed, it is the expanding consciousness of this union of humanity and divinity that is the primary objective of this endeavor knowing that as we engage in sincere and sustained inquiry, an expanded revelation of truth unfolds, and inevitably, the co-creation of work whose elements may be found in the Primary and Secondary Corpora.
