Summary/Abstract: The paper poses a problem how is it possible to investigate that vague feeling, which makes possible the stay and the successful action in the world; what makes the body possible as the sociology's own subject and in what means the body and the logic of practice are inter-related and inter-penetrated. Regarding with the theory of Pier Bourdieu for practical belief as a condition of the body, which is consisted from quasi-bodily dispositions, operating schemes, which sense is forgotten precisely because it is settled in the body, the author analyses the reflective "practically-logical experiment", described in the fairy-tail "The Princess and The Peas Bean". The aim of the analysis is to represent how the conditions of possibility or impossibility of the particular predicative adjudgement are formed; how habitues and habitat are stratified in the moment of a crisis and exceed the bounds of their common history and how is possible for them to come band together and to find their naturalness in the body.
