Shloka 5
व्याधि-गुण-साम्योपदेशः | Discourse on Affliction, Guṇa-Equilibrium, and the Inner Battle
तेषां गुणानां साम्यं चेत् तदाहु: स्वस्थलक्षणम् । तेषामन्यतमोत्सेके विधानमुपदिश्यते
teṣāṃ guṇānāṃ sāmyaṃ cet tad āhuḥ svastha-lakṣaṇam | teṣām anyatamotseke vidhānam upadiśyate ||
当这些德性保持均衡时，这便被称为心识健全之相；但若其中任何一种偏盛过度，便有既定之法，教人加以约束与调治。

Educational Q&A
Mental well-being is characterized by balance among the inner qualities (guṇas). When one quality becomes dominant or excessive, one should apply a deliberate corrective discipline to restore equilibrium.
Vāyudeva is giving didactic instruction, defining the sign of a healthy state (svastha-lakṣaṇa) as the evenness of qualities, and indicating that specific remedies are taught when any one quality rises excessively.
