Chapter 6: Dhyān Yog
nātyaśhnatastu yogo ’sti na chaikāntam anaśhnataḥ
na chāti-svapna-śhīlasya jāgrato naiva chārjuna||16||

yuktāhāra-vihārasya yukta-cheṣhṭasya karmasu
yukta-svapnāvabodhasya yogo bhavati duḥkha-hā||17||

Meaning : There is no Yoga for one who eats too much or too little, for one who sleeps too much or too little, and for one who is restless while awake, O Arjuna. ||16||

Yoga is for one who is moderate in eating and recreation, moderate in actions, and moderate in sleeping and waking, such balanced living destroys suffering. ||17||
