The Eleven Discourses Beginning with Māra

182. At Sāvatthī. Seated to one side, the Venerable Rādha said this to the Blessed One - "It would be good, venerable sir, if the Blessed One would teach me the Teaching in brief, so that having heard the Teaching from the Blessed One, I might dwell alone, withdrawn, diligent, ardent, and resolute."

"Whatever, Rādha, is Māra; therein your desire is to be abandoned, lust is to be abandoned, desire and lust is to be abandoned. And what, Rādha, is Māra?

Feeling is Māra; therein your desire is to be abandoned, etc. Perception is Māra; therein your desire is to be abandoned, etc. Activities are Māra; therein your desire is to be abandoned, etc. Consciousness is Māra; therein your desire is to be abandoned, etc. Whatever, Rādha, is Māra; therein your desire is to be abandoned, lust is to be abandoned, desire and lust is to be abandoned."

The Discourse on Having the Nature of Cessation

193. At Sāvatthī.

"Whatever, Rādha, has the nature of cessation; therein your desire is to be abandoned, lust is to be abandoned, desire and lust is to be abandoned. And what, Rādha, has the nature of cessation?
