Henri Bergson: Intellect vs. Intuition

Henri Bergson (1851 - 1941)

Henri Bergson - a most eloquent and ingenious French Scientist turned Philosopher that was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1927, is the desperate need of our times. His wisdom needs to be rediscovered and sprinkled all over the world, so critical thought and creative leadership may once again blossom across the length and breadth of the globe. Bergson's philosophy posits to transcend all the differences between the various schools of Western philosophical thought and makes us travel right within our conscious psychic selves, with his method of empathizing with oneself, which he called intuition.
