4.179
調眠者,眠是眼食,不可苦節,增於心數,損失功夫;復不可恣。上訶蓋中一向除棄,為正入定障故。此中在散心時從容四大,故各有其意。略而言之,不節、不恣,是眠調相。
As for regulating sleep: sleep is the nourishment of the eyes. One must not restrict it painfully, which would multiply mental factors and squander one's efforts; nor may one indulge it. Above, in the section on rebuking hindrances, [sleep] was discarded outright because it is an impediment to properly entering absorption. Here, while in a dispersed state of mind, one accommodates the four great elements; thus each [context] has its own rationale. In brief, neither restricting nor indulging is the mark of regulated sleep.
