“[Biological life] is still in accordance with the environment, and not yet truly "from the formed towards the forming”. At the extreme limit of the contradiction, the evolution leads to the life of man. Of course, this is the result of the work of the historical life for many millions of years. At the extreme limit of acting life from the formed towards the forming, a stage is reached where the subject lives by submerging into the environment, and the environment is environment by negating itself, and becoming subjective.”
