維摩經略疏 3.15

3.15

「獲無所畏降魔勞怨」此二句，是四、歎外用無怯，如世長者有威勢也。何者？十力無畏降魔制外，魔即四魔八魔十魔，如上說。勞怨者，魔有塵勞之力，能害菩薩智度母、善權父、諸善法親，故名勞怨。

"Acquiring fearlessnesses, subduing the afflictions and enmities of Māra": these two lines are the fourth, praising the lack of timidity in external function, like the majesty and power of a worldly householder. Why so? With the ten powers and fearlessnesses, he subdued Māras and checked non-Buddhists. Māras are the four Māras, eight Māras, and ten Māras, as stated above. "Afflictions and enmities": Māras have the power of defiling toil, able to harm the bodhisattva's mother of the perfection of wisdom, father of skillful means, and all kin of good dharmas; hence they are called "afflictions and enmities."
