Sengliang states: The king is an analogy for the past Buddha, and the strongman is an analogy for the present Buddha. The skills and abilities are an analogy for fearlessness in the ten directions. The Buddha conquers the four māras; how could he be a conditioned phenomenon?
Sengzong states: This is the fourth parable. The Buddha's path surpasses the realm of Māra; how could it be a dharma of death?
Huilang's distinct commentary states: This is the third parabolic exposition. Because the strongman possesses various skills and abilities, he can match a thousand men. Because the Buddha has perfected the myriad practices, he is revered in the three realms.
