大方廣圓覺修多羅了義經 1.53

1.53

「善男子！若諸菩薩悟淨圓覺，以淨覺心，知覺心性及與根塵皆因幻化，即起諸幻以除幻者，變化諸幻而開幻眾；由起幻故便能內發大悲輕安，一切菩薩從此起行，漸次增進。彼觀幻者非同幻故，非同幻觀皆是幻故，幻相永離；是諸菩薩所圓妙行，如土長苗。此方便者名三摩鉢提。

"Kulaputra, if bodhisattvas awaken to pure, perfect enlightenment, with the pure mind of enlightenment they know that the nature of the mind of enlightenment as well as the faculties and dusts are all due to illusory transformation; they then give rise to illusions in order to eliminate what is illusory, transforming various illusions to enlighten the illusory multitudes. By giving rise to illusions, they are internally able to produce the pliancy of great compassion; from this, all bodhisattvas initiate practice and gradually advance. Because that contemplation of illusion is not identical to illusion, and because the non-identical contemplation of illusion is itself entirely illusory, illusory marks are forever left behind; this wonderful practice perfected by the bodhisattvas is like sprouts growing from the earth. This upāya is named samāpatti.
