Creating a form with 1,000 arms, each equipped with a weapon, Mara, on the<br />
elephant Girimekhala, uttered a frightening roar together with his troops. The<br />
Lord of Sages defeated him by means of such qualities as generosity:<br />
By the power of this, may you have victory blessings.<br />
Even more frightful than Mara making war all night<br />
Was Āëavaka, the arrogant unstable ogre.<br />
The Lord of Sages defeated him by means of well-trained endurance:<br />
By the power of this, may you have victory blessings.<br />
Nāëāgiri, the excellent elephant, when maddened,<br />
Was very horrific, like a forest fire, a flaming discus, a lightning bolt.<br />
The Lord of Sages defeated him by sprinkling the water of good will:<br />
By the power of this, may you have victory blessings.<br />
Very horrific, with a sword upraised in his expert hand,<br />
Garlanded-with-Fingers ran three leagues along the path.<br />
The Lord of Sages defeated him with mind-fashioned marvels:<br />
By the power of this, may you have victory blessings.<br />
Katvāna kaññham-udaraü iva gabbhinīyā Having made a wooden belly to appear pregnant,<br />
