In Buddhist art, we witness two remarkable instances of Buddha subduing Mara. In Nakhonsrithammarat school during the Ayutthaya period in the 16th century AD, Buddha's serene presence triumphs over temptation and evil forces. Similarly, in Nakhon Si Tammarat school's Ayutthaya style artwork from the same era, Buddha's enlightenment prevails as he conquers Mara's attempts to disrupt his path. The founder of the Shogunate stands tall as a testament to a system of government that endured for an astonishing 700 years.

The vibrant colors in this lithograph depict justice prevailing over criminal activities. Even architectural elements portray acts of subduing; a column capital depicts St Benedict performing an exorcism - a visual representation of spiritual power overpowering malevolent spirits. History also reveals moments where ordinary individuals rise above adversity. Women arresting burglars in Paris showcases their courage and determination against wrongdoers. Likewise, three mastiffs capturing a criminal exemplify loyalty and vigilance protecting society from harm. Religious imagery portrays St Michael subduing Satan while weighing souls - illustrating divine intervention guiding humanity towards righteousness even amidst darkness. Hercules overpowering a lion signifies bravery overcoming formidable challenges through sheer strength.
