7.176

[Kumāra]jīva says: In foreign lands, when defeating an enemy and gaining victory, they erect a victory banner; subduing māras at the bodhimaṇḍa also signifies the mark of victory.
[Seng]zhao says: According to the custom of foreign lands, when fighting and breaking the enemy, they raise a banner to display victory. The bodhisattva crushes the thieves of affliction and subdues the enemies of the four māras, whereupon they establish the bodhimaṇḍa and set up the mark of victory.
