The article is devoted to the interpretation of physical knowledge in the works "Structure of Physics" by K. F. von Weizsäcker and “Matter does not exist” by H.-P. Dürr. These works reveal a special understanding of matter in quantum mechanics.
In the interpretation of physical knowledge H.-P. Dürr and K. F. von Weizsäcker postulate a special interpretation of matter within the framework of quantum theory, namely the inseparability of consciousness from matter. At the same time, we emphasize the fundamental difference between these approaches. H.-P. Dürr remains in the position of Advaita-Vedanta, his approach is closer to Eastern metaphysics, Weizsäcker adheres to the Western epistemological tradition, presenting physics as what we can know about matter. Heidegger also touches this issue, he criticizes the concept of "object" and "subject" in modern science, but does not say that both concepts must somehow be combined.
