The article analyzes the views of the famous French philosopher Henri Bergson on vitality and intuitionism. Bergson contrasted his theory of creative evolution with Darwin's theory of evolution in a rationalistic spirit. He reveals that Darwin's views were mechanistic in nature. It also shows the difference between intellect and intuition. Since natural processes are characterized by vitality, they prove to be creative in nature.
