本經與《增壹阿含經》第45品第3經及南傳巴利語佛經《中部》第17經的內容相同。
所謂「良禽擇木而居」，孟母也會為了孟子的教育而三遷，由此可知環境對一個人的發展與影響何其之大，佛陀在本經也有如是的開示，佛陀以頭陀支的「森林住」為例，如果某森林的物質條件苛刻、艱困與匱乏，但卻有利於比丘的修行，這個比丘可以選擇繼續住下去；反之，就算物質條件良好，但卻很不利於修行，仍應選擇離去。

我是這樣聽聞的：
有一次，佛陀在古印度的舍衛國遊方行腳，並暫時住在勝林給孤獨園林之中。
當時，世尊對諸比丘說：「比丘們，若有比丘依止於一座森林並居住於該林中，一開始他抱持著以下的想法：『我依止於這座荒涼的山林而居住，我未現起的正念將生起，同時未入定的心會入定，未遍滅盡的一切煩惱將滅盡，未抵達的無上安穩涅槃將抵達，還有凡是出家應該得到的生活必需品，比如衣服、施食、臥具、病人需要的物資及醫藥必需品，這些東西都不難取得。』，於是，這個森林比丘便居住在這座森林中。
但後來這個比丘卻發現一切都事與願違，跟他當初想的不一樣，在這座森林中修行，未現起的正念沒有生起，同時未入定的心沒有入定，未遍滅盡的一切煩惱沒有滅盡，未抵達的無上安穩涅槃沒有抵達，但凡是出家應該得到的生活必需品，比如衣服、施食、臥具、病人需要的物資及醫藥必需品，這些東西對該比丘而言並不難取得。這時，這名比丘應如理思惟，這裡的環境並不適合他繼續修行，因為他沒有辦法在此處更上一層樓，他應該要捨此森林而離去，另覓更適合的修行處所。
假設，有一個比丘住在森林中修行，他發現未生起的正念已生起，未入定的心已入定，未遍滅盡的一切煩惱已滅盡，未抵達的無上安穩涅槃已抵達，然而，凡是出家應該得到的生活必需品，比如衣服、施食、臥具、病人需要的物資及醫藥必需品，這些物資都非常難取得。也就是說，這名比丘發現雖然周遭的物質條件與環境極其艱困與匱乏，但對於他的修行卻大有助益與精進，因此他可以選擇繼續住在此森林中。
又假設，有比丘在某座森林中修行，他發現未現起的正念沒有生起，未入定的心沒有入定，未遍滅盡的一切煩惱沒有滅盡，未抵達的無上安穩涅槃沒有抵達，而且凡是出家應該得到的生活必需品，比如衣服、施食、臥具、病人需要的物資及醫藥必需品，這些東西對該比丘而言非常難取得。這時，該比丘應如理思惟，修行也講求天時、地利及人和等因緣，而眼下這座森林對他的修行極其不利，他應立即捨此森林，於夜半時分離去。
最後，若比丘發現在某森林中修行時，未生起的正念已生起，未入定的心已入定，未遍滅盡的一切煩惱已滅盡，未抵達的無上安穩涅槃已抵達，而且，凡是出家應該得到的生活必需品，比如衣服、施食、臥具、病人需要的物資及醫藥必需品，這些物資都很容易取得。也就是說，這名比丘發現這座森林對他的修行不論主客觀條件都非常有利，那麼他當然可以選擇繼續住在此森林中，一直住到他生命結束的那一天為止。
森林住是頭陀十三支中的一支，只是一個例子，其餘如塚間住(住在墳場旁)，甚或住在村邑中又或者人多的地方也是如此。總之，選擇與考量修行環境的標準是以是否有利於修行解脫道為準繩。」
當佛陀說完之後，諸比丘都心生歡喜，並依法奉行。
中阿含107經/林經(上)(林品)
我聞如是：
一時，佛遊舍衛國，在勝林給孤獨園。
爾時，世尊告諸比丘：
「比丘者，依一林住：『我依此林住，或無正念便得正念，其心不定而得定心，若不解脫便得解脫，諸漏不盡而得漏盡，不得無上安隱涅槃則得涅槃，學道者所須衣被、飲食、床榻、湯藥、諸生活具，彼一切求索易不難得。』彼比丘依此林住。依此林住已，若無正念不得正念，其心不定不得定心，若不解脫不得解脫，諸漏不盡不得漏盡，不得無上安隱涅槃，然不得涅槃，學道者所須衣被、飲食、床榻、湯藥、諸生活具，彼一切求索易不難得，彼比丘應作是觀：『我出家學道，不為衣被故，不為飲食、床榻、湯藥故，亦不為諸生活具故，然，我依此林住，或無正念不得正念，其心不定不得定心，若不解脫不得解脫，諸漏不盡不得漏盡，不得無上安隱涅槃，然不得涅槃，學道者所須衣被、飲食、床榻、湯藥、諸生活具，彼一切求索易不難得。』彼比丘如是觀已，可捨此林去。

如依林住，塜(塚)間、村邑、依於人住亦復如是。」
佛說如是，彼諸比丘聞佛所說，歡喜奉行。
增壹阿含45品3經
聞如是：
一時，佛在舍衛國祇樹給孤獨園。
爾時，世尊告諸比丘：
「若有比丘依村落住，善法消{滅}[減]，惡法遂增，彼比丘當作是學：『我今在村落居止，惡法遂增，善法漸減，念不專一，不得盡有漏，不至無為安隱之處，我所得衣被、飲食、床臥具、病瘦醫藥勞苦乃獲。』彼比丘當作是學：『吾今住此村落之中，惡法遂增，善法消{滅}[減]，我亦不以衣被、飲食、床臥具、醫藥故，來作沙門，吾所求願者，今不獲果。』又，彼比丘當遠離村落去。
若復有比丘依村落住，善法增益，惡法消滅，所得衣{裳}[被]、飲食、床臥具勤勞乃獲，彼比丘當作是學：『我今依此村落住，善法增益，惡法消滅，所得供養之具勤勞乃得，{有}[又]，我不以衣被故出家學道，修於梵行，我所學道求願者必成其法，應當盡形壽承事供養。』」
爾時，世尊便說偈曰：
「衣被及飲食，床{臥}[具]及所安，不應貪著想，亦莫來此世。
不以衣被故，出家而學道，所以學道者，必果其所願。
比丘尋應時，盡形住彼村，於彼般涅槃，盡其命根本。
是時，彼比丘若在人間靜處所遊之村，善法增益，惡法自滅，彼比丘盡形壽住彼村中，不應遠遊。」
是時，阿難白世尊言：
「如來常不說四大依食得存，亦依於心所念法？諸善之法依心而生？又，彼比丘依村落住，勞苦精神乃求衣食，彼云何生善法，住彼村落而不遠遊？」
佛告阿難：
「衣被、飯食、床臥具、病瘦醫藥有三種，若復比丘專念四事供養，所欲不果，此依是苦。若復興知足之心，不起想著，諸天、人民代其歡喜，又，比丘！當作是學，我由此故而說此義。
是故，阿難！比丘當念少欲知足。如是，阿難！[當作是學。」
爾時，阿難]聞佛所說，歡喜奉行。
