Abstract
The conclusion gives a bird’s-eye view on the major outcomes of the previous chapters and reemphasizes the role of love as both the highest expression of self-overcoming and the ultimate message of Bergson’s philosophy. It adds that the exclusion of negativity opens the path, without ignoring the reality of human sufferings, to a higher life, the very one acceding to joy as the reward for advancing life’s main goal: self-overcoming.
