The correct Sanskrit sound is \*māra\* (麼羅, 麼 is 莫可反 \[mɑ̌\]), which in the Tang language means "power". These spirits possess great supernatural power and can obstruct the cultivation of the ten wholesome deeds, hence their name. The lower \[character\] is \*juàn\* (決兖反 \[kwiɛň\]), a snare or lasso; 罥 also means to bind. It takes the net radical 冈 with 肙 (\*yuān\*, 一縣反 \[ʔwenᴴ\]) as its phonetic. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 12.190](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.12.190) - [Next: 12.192](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.12.192) - [Up: 12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.12) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128~en-mt.12.191) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.12.191](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.12.191) · Pramāṇa
