<![CDATA[If perception is the point of the human experience, then bodily experience is where the perception begins. The perception shows that human is global: being-in-the-world. By understanding perception as the intensity of our entire way of being in this world, the human body must be understood as body-subject and not body-object. In his philosophical thinking, Merleau-Ponty defines the human body not against inanimate things or objects in the world, but as a living body. Due to it being alive and containing intelligence, our bodies interact actively and intelligently with their environment.
