[389] At Sāvatthī. Then the Venerable Rādha approached the Blessed One; having approached, he paid homage to the Blessed One and sat down to one side. Sitting 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One would teach me the Dhamma in brief, so that, having heard the Dhamma from the Blessed One, I might dwell alone, withdrawn, diligent, ardent (ātāpī), and resolute."
"Whatever, Rādha, is Māra — there you should abandon desire (chanda). And what, Rādha, is Māra? Form (rūpa), Rādha, is Māra: there you should abandon desire. Feeling (vedanā) is Māra: there you should abandon desire. Perception (saññā) … . Volitional formations (saṅkhārā) are Māra: there you should abandon desire. Consciousness (viññāṇa) is Māra: there you should abandon desire. Whatever, Rādha, is Māra — there you should abandon desire. Lust (rāga) should be abandoned; desire-and-lust (chandarāga) should be abandoned."
