首楞嚴義疏注經 9.197

9.197

殊為眇劣者，殊，異也，即異常之眇劣也。魔鬼相望，魔勝而鬼劣。今登伽是人，但有呪力，非具五通，若望於魔，即眇劣中又眇劣者。彼唯下，釋眇劣相。據摩登伽期心甚淺，但欲毀汝淫之一戒。由汝無心，尚不成犯。此乃下，顯魔勝。此，此魔也，魔欲令汝三昧不成，流浪輪轉，法身慧命絕滅銷殞，如宰輔家犯國極法，削沒其籍，世無食祿，深可悲夫。

'Exceedingly petty and inferior': 'exceedingly' (殊) means extraordinarily, that is, extraordinarily petty and inferior. When māras and ghosts are compared, māras are superior while ghosts are inferior. Now Mātaṅgī was a human, possessing only the power of a spell and not endowed with the five penetrations; compared to māra, she is the petty and inferior among the petty and inferior. From 'she merely' onward explains the character of being petty and inferior. According to this, Mātaṅgī's intended mind was very shallow; she only wished to violate your single precept of sexual misconduct. Because you had no such mind, it did not even constitute a violation. From 'this [māra]' onward reveals māra's superiority. 'This' refers to this māra. Māra wishes to make your samādhi fail, leaving you to drift in transmigration, causing your Dharma-body and life of wisdom to be extinguished and wiped out, just like the family of a chief minister violating the supreme laws of the state, having their registration confiscated and struck out, with no livelihood in the world: it is deeply pitiable indeed.
