用息治八觸相違病者：若因重觸成地大病，偏用出息治之。若發輕觸成風病，偏用入息治之。若發冷觸成水病，偏用出息治之。若發熱觸成火病，偏用入息治之。餘亦如是。若得調和正等，隨意而用。此用常所數息，非作別息也。

Regarding using breath to treat illnesses of discord among the eight tactile sensations: if an illness of the earth element arises due to heavy touch, specifically use the out-breath to treat it. If an illness of wind arises from light touch, specifically use the in-breath to treat it. If an illness of water arises from cold touch, specifically use the out-breath to treat it. If an illness of fire arises from hot touch, specifically use the in-breath to treat it. The others are also like this. If one attains harmonious equilibrium, use it as one wishes. This employs the ordinary counting of breath, not the production of any special breath.
