Sumario:This essay analyzes the relation body and movement to transcendence based on fundamental concepts of the body theme - immanence and transcendence. It takes up principles and ideas from classical authors of philosophy and religion such as Plato and Aristotle, as well as Hegel and Descartes, to address the concrete materiality of the body in the historical-social course and, as it moves, it develops the spirituality that moves and the psychic force that transcends. Among the concepts, it appreciates the corporeality in Merleau-Ponty and his followers and the humanized transcendence in Manuel Sérgio and the scholars of this author. It applies as methodology the review of studies and as methodological procedure the classification of ideas and theoretical principles categorized by the meanings of body, movement, spirituality, and transcendence, in the elected authors. It concludes that in conscious movement, there is a transcendence of bodily limits and levels of spirituality as a continual process of the human trajectory.
