4.79

略明四大病者，地大增故，腫結沈重，身體枯瘠，如是等百一患生。水大增故，痰癊脹滿，飲食不消，腹痛下利等百一患生。火大增故，煎寒壯熱，支節皆痛，口爽、大小行不通利等百一患生。風大增故，虛懸戰掉，疼痛轉筋，嘔吐嗽氣急，如是等百一患生。故經云：「一大不調，百一病惱；四大不調，四百四病一時俱動。」四大病發，各有相貌，當於坐時及夢中察之，其相眾多，不可具記。

Briefly explaining illnesses of the four great elements: because the earth element increases, swellings, knots, and heaviness, as well as withered emaciation of the body—one hundred and one such afflictions arise. Because the water element increases, phlegm-fluid congestion and distension, indigestion of food and drink, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and so forth—one hundred and one such afflictions arise. Because the fire element increases, chills and high fever, pain in all joints and limbs, loss of taste, constipation and urinary retention, and so forth—one hundred and one such afflictions arise. Because the wind element increases, feelings of floating emptiness and trembling, aching pain and cramping, vomiting, coughing, and shortness of breath—one hundred and one such afflictions arise. Therefore a sūtra says: 'When one great element is out of harmony, one hundred and one illnesses cause distress; when the four great elements are out of harmony, four hundred and four illnesses stir together at once.' The arising of illnesses of the four great elements each has its own signs, which should be observed during sitting and in dreams; their signs are manifold and cannot be recorded in full.
