坐禪三昧經 2.109

2.109

菩薩如是觀十二因緣，知眾生虛誑繫在苦患，易度耳。諸法若有實相難可得度，思惟如是則破愚癡。

When a bodhisattva contemplates the twelve causes and conditions in this way, he knows that sentient beings are bound by false illusions in suffering and affliction, and are easy to liberate. If dharmas possessed a real mark, they would be difficult to liberate. Reflecting in this way, he destroys delusion.
