Rūpī (रूपी, “form�) or ū辱ṇa according to the 2nd-century Tattvārthasūtra 5.5.—Things which have form (ūī) constitute matter (pudgala). What is called with form (ūī) or concrete?

Matter (pudgala) is with form (ūپ첹 or ūī). How do we know it? Existence and activities of matter in the universe are perceptible by sense organs. Hence it is called with form or just concrete.
