Deux sources de la morale et de la religion

About “Deux sources de la morale et de la religion”

Henri Bergson's book explores the dual origins of morality and religion, identifying a static principle derived from nature's heritage and accumulated forms, and a dynamic principle that sustains morality and religion as living, evolving forces. The work examines moral obligation, the role of religion in preserving humanity from the dangers of its own intelligence, and the nature of dynamic religion or mysticism as an expression of the life force that enables progress beyond the closed society toward an open society.
