छायायामप्सु वायौ च सुखमुष्णेडधिगच्छति
chāyāyām apsu vāyau ca sukham uṣṇeḍ adhigacchati
Nakakamtan ng tao ang ginhawa at pagluwag mula sa init sa pagdulog sa lilim, sa tubig, at sa malamig na simoy—ipinapakita na ang kagalingan ay nagmumula sa paghahanap ng wastong kanlungan at lunas na angkop sa sariling kalagayan.

Educational Q&A
Suffering is eased by choosing an appropriate countermeasure: just as heat is relieved by shade, water, and breeze, human distress is relieved by seeking the right support, discipline, or counsel suited to the problem.
Aila speaks in a didactic context within Śānti Parva, using a simple natural example—relief from heat through shade, water, and wind—to illustrate a broader ethical point about finding proper remedies and refuges.
