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 transcended the time in which they lived.
"To the rank and file of his followers he made no effort to present teaching beyond the fact of the rulership of the Most Highs of Edentia--Gods of Urantia. But to some, Melchizedek taught advanced truth, embracing the conduct and organization of the local universe, while to his brilliant disciple Nordan the Kenite and his band of earnest students he taught the truths of the superuniverse and even of Havona."[3]
Likewise, this Symposia is dedicated to advancing the study of humanity[4] co-evolving with the discovery of our indwelling divinity. Such an inquiry celebrates the limitless range of fact, meaning, and value around and within us whose exploration is the joy of every child of God.
One material component of our shared discovery in this Symposia is the Corpora consisting of the Forum[5], a Primary Corpus, and a Secondary Corpus. The Forum is an arena where discussions are hosted, and for this purpose, an electronic platform is provided as a virtual counterpart to our respective dialogue transpiring beyond any observable range as well as in ways more congruent with everyday 'matters of fact'. Otherwise, the Primary Corpus contains work attributed to divine sources while the Secondary Corpus consists of work attributed to human sources.
Often, finite distinctions between the human and divine are arbitrary given the limited 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 evolving 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, there may ensue the co-creation of work whose elements may someday be found in the Primary and Secondary Corpora.
