### [11.40](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.11.40)

又佛本行經云。爾時魔王波旬長子名曰商主。即以頭頂禮菩薩足。乞求懺悔口唱是言。大善聖子願聽我父發露辭謝。凡愚淺短猶如小兒無有智慧。我今忽來惱亂聖子。將諸魔眾現種種相恐怖聖子。我於已前曾諮父言。以忠正心。雖有智人善解諸術。猶尚不能降伏於彼悉達太子。況復我等。但願聖子恕亮我父。我父無智不識道理。如是恐怖大聖王子。當何取生大聖王子。願仁所誓早獲成就速證阿耨菩提。

> Also, the Fo benxing jing says: At that time, Māra Pāpīyas's eldest son, named Sārthavāha, bowed his head to the Bodhisattva's feet, begged for repentance, and spoke these words: 'Great and virtuous Holy Son, please allow my father to confess and apologize. Foolish, vulgar, and shallow as a small child, he has no wisdom. Now he has suddenly come to harass the Holy Son, bringing the demon hosts and manifesting various forms to terrify the Holy Son. Previously, I advised my father with a loyal and upright mind: "Even if there were a wise man skilled in all arts, he still could not subdue Prince Siddhārtha; how much less could we!" May the Holy Son forgive and understand my father. My father lacks wisdom and does not know reason, terrifying the Great Holy Prince in this way. How could he gain life from this? O Great Holy Prince, may what you have vowed soon be accomplished, and may you swiftly realize anuttarabodhi.'
