「爾時天魔候得其便,飛精附人,口說經法。其人不覺是其魔著,自言謂得無上涅槃,來彼求巧男子處,善敷座說法。其形斯須或作比丘令彼人見,或為帝釋,或為婦女,或比丘尼,或寢闇室身有光明。是人愚迷,惑為菩薩,信其教化,搖蕩其心,破佛律儀,潛行貪欲。」

"At that time, the heavenly demon awaits and finds its opportunity, flying its essence to possess a person, who preaches sūtras and Dharma with his mouth. That person does not realize he is possessed by a demon, and claims himself to have attained unexcelled nirvāṇa. He comes to the place of that man who seeks skillfulness, skillfully arranges a seat, and preaches the Dharma. In an instant, his form might appear to that person as a bhikṣu, or as Śakra, or as a woman, or as a bhikṣuṇī, or while sleeping in a dark room his body emits light. That person is foolish and deluded, mistaking him for a bodhisattva, believes his teachings, his mind shaken and stirred, breaking the Buddha's moral discipline and secretly practicing greedy desire."
