此經講述 Kāmabhū 在 Kosambī 問阿難：究竟是根繫縛境，還是境繫縛根？阿難答道，真正的繫縛是由根境相觸而生的貪慾；後來舍利弗也以同樣的解答回應了大拘絺羅提出的相同問題。

A discourse in which Kāmabhū asks Ānanda at Kosambī whether the senses bind their objects or objects bind the senses, and is told that the true bond is the desire and lust arising from their contact — the same question Sāriputta later answers for Mahā-Koṭṭhika.
