2.48

The commentary states: The various sūtras state that Māra Pāpīyas resides at the pinnacle of the six heavens of desire, where he has a separate palace. Now the Guo qu xian zai yin guo jing designates him as the King of the Vaśavartin Heaven. In this case, it corresponds to the sixth heaven. That there are these two discrepancies is likely due to the translators adopting different meanings.
