Research Abstract	We can see one of common features between the philosophical theories of life of ancient Greek thinkers, the peak of which was Platonic philosophy, and that of Viktor von Weizsacker at the following point : they pressed for fundamental reflection to the physical thinking system and set universal humanics including nature and human beings on the bottom. Making the way of thinking of this humanics guidance, I tried construction of a new philosophy of life as immovable basis for solving various problems which are occurring in present-day spots of life science and medicine.
