The organic nature seems to be the most enigmatic realm of reality. At the beginning of last century, the philosopher Helmuth Plessner and the doctor Viktor von Weizsäcker, each with its own research and different methods, have tried to unravel the complicated set of problems concerning the investigation of the organic reality. The two scholars, with a significant and somewhat surprising convergence, support the idea of a structural unit of the body and the biological action in front of which the tools of traditional science can not succeed. Life is a special dimension of nature, in which the dialectic and antilogical reveal the features of a subjective ground.
