Together with his retinue, he bowed his head to my feet, joined his palms in reverent respect, and stood to one side." This second point shows Māra coming in the form of Śakra. Sengzhao states: Pāpīyas is translated in Qin as 'killer,' or 'utmost evil.' Because he severs people's roots of goodness, he is called killer; because he goes against the Buddha and disrupts the Saṅgha, no transgression is greater than this, hence he is utmost evil. Kumārajīva states: Śakra is a disciple of the Buddha; knowing Dharaṇīṃdhara would have no doubts, Māra came in Śakra's form. Dharaṇīṃdhara did not form an intention to observe the minds of others, and therefore did not perceive it. Tiantai states: That an upāya-bodhisattva did not know Māra had come has three meanings: first, he was not yet able to see the two realms of Māra and Buddha as equal in the one thusness, so he did not know; second, there was a gap between entering and leaving his contemplation of conditions, so he did not know; third, he was not yet able to equalize the transformation of good and evil and his mind had accepting and rejecting, so he did not know. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.599](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.1.599) - [Next: 1.601](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.1.601) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777~en-mt.1.600) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [注維摩詰經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.4.157) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.1.600](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2777.1.600) · Pramāṇa
