This paper reviews Merleau-Ponty's works and explores the reality of the human body. From Merleau-Ponty's phenomenology we can study the reality of the living body and can define all the phenomena of life. The living body is unified in a mutual relationship with the world. Merleau-Ponty says the living body is divided in two parts: "body-subject" and "body-ego." And he supports this Idea with the phenomenon of phantom limb as evidence. Because phantom limb (le membre fantome) exists, the body can be seen as a "habitual body" (le corps habituel) and a "realistic body" (le corps actuel). The human body exists in a relationship between perception and reality. Also, this aspect of the living body makes it possible for people to live with others and to discover new and different aspects in others. The body, itself, shows the actuality of coexistence in the world.
