The Buddha is explaining a contemplation on one aspect of Dependent Origination here. I am sure this is part of a series of teachings taking one through a contemplation of each aspect of Dependent Origination.
The following are the sixteen contemplations listed in Dvayatanupassana Sutta (The foot notes on my sinhala translation says each method an independent way of reaching nibbana)
- 'This is stress. This is the origination of stress': this is one contemplation. '
This is the cessation of stress. This is the path of practice leading to the cessation of stress': this is a second contemplation
