釋禪波羅蜜次第法門 6.38

6.38

法緣者，諸漏盡阿羅漢、辟支佛、諸佛，是諸聖人破吾我相，滅一異相故，但觀從因緣相續生。以慈念眾生時，從和合因緣相續，但空五陰即是眾生，念是五陰。此慈念眾生不知是法空，眾生常一心欲得樂，聖人愍之，令隨意得樂，為世俗法故，名為法緣。

As for being conditioned upon phenomena: the arhats whose defilements are exhausted, pratyekabuddhas, and Buddhas—because these noble ones have destroyed the characteristic of a self and extinguished the characteristics of oneness and difference—merely contemplate arising in succession from causes and conditions. When benevolently contemplating sentient beings, [perceiving that] from the succession of harmonious causes and conditions, only empty five aggregates are the sentient being, they are mindful of these five aggregates. While benevolently contemplating sentient beings who do not know this emptiness of phenomena, and that sentient beings constantly and single-mindedly desire to obtain happiness, the noble ones pity them and cause them to obtain happiness as they wish; because it is for the sake of conventional phenomena, it is called conditioned upon phenomena.
