What the text says

Each statement reports the source, with its chapter, page and verse. Traditional descriptions are not presented as proven medical facts.

Indications1

  • One who has come a long way on foot, is tired or thirsty, is wasted by vata disease, has diarrhoea, is drunk with liquor, or has stayed awake at night may sleep in the day for half as long as he stayed awake.

    Chapter 6 · p. 78 · v. 25Hindi commentaryTraditional description

Regimen1

  • One who sleeps enough at night becomes happy, and one who wants happiness should certainly sleep at night; sleep is the cause of health for all beings, and broken sleep provokes the doshas, vata and the others. Yet one should not sleep night and day.
