To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
* All tended to mankind, But in completed man begins anew A tendency to God. * ^ This creative consciousness still pushes on, giving to matter its own life, and drawing from matter its nutriment and strength. The effort is painful, but in making it we feel that it is precious, more precious perhaps than the particu- lar work it results in, because through it we have been making ourselves, ' raising ourselves above ourselves. ' And in this there is the true joy of life — the joy which every crea...tor feels — the joy of achievement and triumph. Thus not only is the self being created, but the world is being made — original and incalculable — not according to a pre- conceived plan or logical sequence, but by the free spon- taneous will of man. The soul is the creative force — the real productive agent of novelty in the world. The strange thing is that the soul creates not the world only, but itself. Whence comes this mystic power ? What is the origin of the soul ? Bergson does not say.
