In Buddhism, inner demons could include hatred, greed, delusion, obsession, resentment, and so on. From an emotional point of view, greed, anger, stupidity, slowness, and doubt were also seen as inner demons. Inner demons were the bottleneck of a cultivator's progress. Only by breaking through the inner demons could one's cultivation advance by leaps and bounds. It was the information that cultivators received when their internal energy resonated with some kind of energy in the universe. There were some specific types of manifestations: one was to see all kinds of beautiful scenes in one's heart, such as Buddha's scenes that people who practiced Buddhism might see; the second was to see all kinds of terrible things, such as all kinds of ghosts and monsters that they had seen on TV and movies before; the third was to see some strange scenes that they had never seen before, such as mysterious words; the fourth was to have a deep impression of some things (such as scenes, objects, similar actions) that could not be erased, resulting in their own behavior being affected and restricted. The main reason for this was that the distracting thoughts in the heart would transform into a concrete image during meditation. In addition, during the process of cultivation, if one was obsessed with the unhappiness of the external world, they would develop emotions such as hatred, jealousy, likes, and dislikes, which would easily be controlled by the inner demons. Some people had stubborn personalities, out-of-the-way views, or were too persistent in their thoughts. These could also become the inner demons in their cultivation. Also, if one's heart was too strong, such as being overly immersed in meditation and chanting Buddha, ignoring the normal needs of the body, it might also cause problems related to the inner demons.
Mental demons were originally a Buddhist term used to describe troubles and obstacles. In the process of learning Buddhism, inner demons were obstacles that needed to be overcome. For example, stubbornness and obsession that might occur during cultivation belonged to the category of inner demons. There were also excessive joy in the teachings of Buddhist scriptures, such as excessive meditation and chanting of Buddha, which were also manifestations of inner demons. In daily cultivation, greed, anger, stupidity, slowness, and doubt were also inner demons. They would diminish the path of cultivation. If inner demons appeared, the path of cultivation would be damaged, and the path of cultivation could eliminate inner demons. A true cultivator must maintain a pure heart and free himself from the emotions of hatred, jealousy, likes and dislikes of others. He must avoid doing irrational actions and creating bad karma because of these inner demons.
In Buddhism, the word 'inner demon' was originally a Buddhist term that could be used to describe troubles and obstacles. From an emotional point of view, Buddha said," If one's heart is moved, one will act rashly and experience all kinds of pain in the world." If one's heart is moved rashly, one's emotions will arise. If one can't control their emotions, they will be swallowed by them and bring pain. Therefore, emotions are regarded as inner demons. For example, he would lose his mind when he was angry, and he would be impulsive when he was sad. The greatest enemy in life was not others, but one's own emotions. A truly wise man knew how to be the master of his own emotions. In terms of cultivation, some people would have some inappropriate situations in the process of learning Buddhism that would be related to inner demons. For example, some people believed in Buddhism when they were sick. They were stubborn, paranoid, knowledgeable, or very persistent. Some people were too eager, such as excessive meditation and chanting, which led to adverse consequences like the strings of a zither being too tight and breaking. A true cultivator, on the other hand, should seek inner things according to his heart and practice "not seeing the world." He should not be obsessed with the unhappiness of the external world. He should be free from the emotions of hatred, jealousy, likes and dislikes of others and maintain a pure heart to avoid doing irrational actions due to these emotions and creating bad karma. At the same time, if you surrender your heart, the demons will retreat, and your emotions will naturally be stable. As mentioned in Caigen Tan," The demon conqueror first surrenders his heart, and the demons will retreat."

These three sentences were also regarded as the supreme mantra that could break all demons. In addition, the King of Mantras, Shurangama Mantra, also had the effect of suppressing evil spirits and ghosts and preserving righteousness.
