Summary/Abstract: The main problem of this text concerns the question of duality of human existence, and its relation with humans body. In the animistic paradigm body of a man is an “implement” unifying with the world, made by contact with sprits and ancestors. In the mechanical approach body is separate from consciousness, mind and spirit. It is a machine. In the holistic paradigm body is a part of the universe, and nowadays this universe is the informatics web. The man – golem, homunculus and automaton becomes part of total information. In this new situation the problem concerns psychological and moral attitude of man.
