Quote attributed to Henri Bergson

[edit]

The quote:

"Fortunately, some are born with spiritual immune systems that sooner or later give rejection to the illusory worldview grafted upon then from birth through social conditioning. They begin sensing that something is amiss, and start looking for answers. Inner knowledge and anomalous outer experiences show them a side of reality others are oblivious to, and so begins the journey of awakening. Each step of the journey is made by following the heart instead of the crowd, and by choosing knowledge over veils of ignorance."

may be falsely attributed to Henri Bergson, On Intuition vs. Intellect (1907). Esowteric (talk) 10:45, 31 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Is this the source? Ingarden, R., 1994, Gesammelte Werke, Frühe Shriften zur Erkenntnistheorie, Band 6: Intuition und Intellekt bei Henri Bergson, Tübingen: Max Niemeyer. Esowteric (talk) 14:54, 31 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
