| + | The '''Nordan Symposia''' is inspired by the human capacity seen well in one known as [[Nordan]], the [[Kenite]] that lived in the 5th millennia B.C.E.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Era], who, with his "band of earnest students" residing at [[Salem]] under the tutelage of [[Machiventa]] [[Melchizedek]], posed such brilliant questions as to earn from [[Machiventa]] an expanded revelation of [[truth]] that far transcended the [[time]] in which they lived. ([[93:3|93:3.4]]) Likewise, this [[Symposia]] is dedicated to advancing the study of [[humanity]] as one evolving proportionate to the discovery of our indwelling [[divinity]]. Such an inquiry celebrates the limitless range of [[fact]], [[meaning]], and [[value]] around and within us whose ongoing exploration is the joy of every [[child of God]]. |

− | One result of our shared discovery in this [[Symposia]] is the '''''[[Nordan Corpora]]'''''. This is composed of a Primary and Secondary Corpus derived from the work conducted within ''[[The Daynal Scriptorium]]'' [http://www.nordan.daynal.org/forum/]. The [[Scriptorium]] is a workspace serving here as a virtual counterpart to the [[dialogue]] transpiring beyond the observable range as well as the more familiar methods of everyday 'matter of fact'. Otherwise, the [[Primary Corpus]] contains work attributed to [[divine]] sources while the [[Secondary Corpus]] consists of work considered to be of [[human]] origin.
| + | This work eschews presumptions upon [[authority]] even as its participants seek to identify and incorporate what are found to be the most helpful resources freely available throughout this world that is slowly becoming a real [[cosmopolis]]. Through such means as 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 are we" to have taken upon ourselves the name - ''[[Human|homo sapiens]]''- the [[wise]] and knowing one? |
| | | |
− | Of course, [[finite]] distinctions between the [[human]] and [[divine]] can be somewhat [[arbitrary]] given our 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 the 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. It is through such [[dialogue]] that a body of written work emerges that may be found in either one or both the Primary and Secondary [[Corpora]].
