The aim of this essay is to address the way in which human existence inevitably means an encounter with the Other in Jan Patočka thought. In this sense, the idea of “movement of life” is fundamental for the understanding of a reconfiguration of the existence and of the meaning of the encounter with the Other in its course in the world. The opposition "being together" and "being against" are presented as manifestations of the same process of reification that, from the "sacrifice", can be overcome in a fuller and more authentic dimension of existence that is, at the same time, the effective encounter with the Other beyond all functionalist and utilitarian determination.
