4.82

Regarding "Laziness means sloth ... counteracted by diligence": Laziness means sloth (kausīdya): the mind not being courageous regarding wholesome dharmas; it is counteracted by diligence mentioned before. Furthermore, the *Nyāyānusāra* states: "Laziness means sloth: deficiency in superior capability regarding wholesome undertakings, and being courageous in according with and accomplishing unwholesome undertakings, which is an outflow of ignorance, is called sloth. Because of this, it is said to be of the nature of base and inferior diligence; because one diligently practices what is base and vile, it is called sloth."
