Time and Consciousness are paramount aspect of our existence which shapes our perception of reality and defines our sense of self. This project work critically examines the concept of Time and Consciousness, particularly through the lens of philosopher Henri Bergson. The problem statement of this study revolves around the significant risks and challenges that can endanger our existence and interactions with the world due to the absence of a comprehensive understanding of Time and Consciousness. The significance of this study lies in its potential to contribute to ongoing discussions on Time and Consciousness, advancing scholarship and efforts to promote personal growth and positive societal change. This project adopts the Analytical Method of research. Through the application of this method, the work finds that while Bergson's ideas offer valuable insights into the dynamic nature of Time and Consciousness, the implications of his philosophy contribute to the notion of Freewill for the human agency in the society. In conclusion, this work advocates for a continued exploration and application of Bergson’s ideas as a means to foster personal growth, creativity, and a more profound engagement with the complexities of human existence.
