With the wax, Descartes is trying to prove that the senses are more unreliable than the mind. Even after all the physical properties of the wax have changed, and the senses should give us the information that it is a different piece of wax, our minds tell us, correctly, that it is indeed the same piece of wax. Therefore, the mind should always be trusted about sense perceptions.
