Five Ranks Talks

The "Five Ranks" (Chinese: 五位; pinyin: Wuwei; Japanese: go-i) is a poem consisting of five stanzas describing the stages of realization in the practice of Chan/Zen Buddhism. It expresses the interplay of absolute and relative truth and the fundamental non-dualism of Buddhist teaching.
