If you truly want to know what level of accomplishment a master has, then you must ascertain the answer from the level that master has achieved in the test and the robe the master wears bearing the buttons that correspond to the master’s level. That is the touchstone for examining the level of someone’s dharma powers and is 100% accurate without the slightest error. It is because it’s so accurate, the couplets at the entrance of the Eight-wind Array could say: “Your level revealed is exactly what your level is, so do not think your level would be any higher;” and “Your weight shown will be whatever you weigh, so there is no way you can add weight.”
