Ce que désigne le doigt dans l’instant présent, a une forme, une taille, des couleurs ; c’est un élément du monde, avec un âge : il est apparu un jour et disparaîtra un jour. Pointez maintenant vers le sol. Ce que vous voyez a encore une forme une couleur ou des couleurs, une taille ; vous désignez un objet du monde (un tapis, un plancher…) semblable à des millions d’objets de cette sorte.
Pointez maintenant le doigt vers votre pied. Pointez maintenant votre doigt vers votre cuisse : même schéma encore : taille, forme, couleur.
