4.158

[Seng]zhao says: Māra saw Dharadhara in quiet rest and wished to disturb his mind; fearing that if he revealed his original form Dharadhara would not speak with him, he transformed into the likeness of Śakra. At that time, Dharadhara did not observe with supernormal powers, and thus thought it was Śakra. [Dao]sheng says: In terms of appearance, it was Śakra. Dharadhara spoke from the human perspective, and thus could say so.
