What then is the subjugation of the works of Māra? That by means of which none of Māra can find a weak point in the Bodhisattva. [...] (9) concealing his own mistakes is the work of Māra; (10) being hostile to the Bodhisattvas is the work of Māra; (11) neglecting the true dharma (saddharma-pratikṣepa) is the work of Māra; (12) putting an end to friendliness is the work of Māra; [...]”.
