Chapter
Preface
Preface serves as a welcoming point of entry into the complex yet accessible philosophy of Henri Bergson. The original inspiration for the work came from two essays published in early 1912, and this expanded edition adds more continuity and depth to clarify points that may challenge first-time readers. The writer does not intend to critique Bergson’s thought academically, as the philosopher’s ideas continue to develop. Instead, the goal is to make Bergson’s vision understandable for a broader…-

Chapter
Index
In this index, Henri Bergson’s thought reveals not just a shift in philosophical method, but a deeper challenge to how existence itself is interpreted. His work moves beyond traditional structures of logic and categorization, advocating instead for a fluid approach rooted in intuition. While conventional philosophy seeks permanence in form and language, Bergson encourages thinkers to embrace change as the essence of life. His philosophy does not merely complement science—it confronts it. The rigid…-

Chapter VIII – Conclusion
Chapter VIII draws readers deeper into the evolving vision of Henri Bergson, where reason is no longer limited to logic alone. Instead, two distinct types of order—geometric and vital—are laid side by side, each revealing a different face of reality. Geometric order, with its straight lines and symmetry, offers a world of prediction and control. But this view, while useful in science and mathematics, cannot fully account for life’s complexity. Vital order, by contrast, is fluid, expressive, and…-

Chapter VII begins with a bold challenge to one of modern philosophy’s most influential traditions. Henri Bergson, in his evolving vision of thought and life, steps away from the rigid contours drawn by thinkers like Kant. Where Kant enclosed reason within the bounds of structure and critique, Bergson sees such confinement as inadequate for understanding the living, breathing nature of thought. Rather than treating knowledge as a construct examined through static methods, he asks us to view it as part of…

Chapter VI opens by challenging one of the most entrenched views in classical philosophy: that perception is internal and subjective. Henri Bergson reverses this assumption, asserting that perception arises at the intersection between subject and object. Rather than treating it as something confined within the observer, he emphasizes its outward-directed nature. According to this view, what we perceive is not an internal reconstruction but a direct connection to reality. This changes the entire framework…

Chapter V invites readers into Henri Bergson’s original vision of inner experience, a philosophy that reshapes how we understand thought, time, and freedom. He departs from the prevailing view of consciousness as a collection of separate parts. Instead, he argues that mental life flows like a melody, where each note influences the one before and after. Bergson sees consciousness as layered and continuous, not mechanical or static. This movement, which he calls “duration,” cannot be sliced into…

Chapter IV offers a striking departure from traditional philosophical thought by challenging how we perceive and interpret reality. Henri Bergson insists that what we commonly call perception is not simply a private mental image but a direct connection with the real world. However, our practical needs limit this connection, pushing us to filter and simplify what we experience. What reaches our awareness is only a fraction of what exists, trimmed by usefulness and habit. In this sense, ordinary perception…

Chapter III begins by investigating how perception evolves from raw experience into structured thought, revealing a spectrum that moves from the immediacy of sensation to constructed concepts. Henri Bergson does not view experience as static or neatly divided; instead, he explains that what we often call facts are not final, but moments within a continuum. Each moment serves both as a foundation for what follows and as a result of what preceded. This flow creates a layered understanding of reality, where…

Chapter II – Teaching
Chapter II develops Henri Bergson’s view of life as a forward-moving force shaped not by mechanical causality but by inner momentum toward novelty and transformation. Progress, in this sense, is not driven by repetition or the weight of the past but by the draw of the future—what has not yet been realized but continually emerges. This movement is not random; it follows a rhythm of creative experimentation and accumulation of past experiences, always pressing toward complexity and consciousness. Such a…-
