24 hours. The system is such that the heart doesn’t need rest. But all other organs which work
for about 12 to 16 hours need rest. Liver, muscles, kidney, ductless glands, brain are all in need
of good rest. 8 hours of sleep is necessary for the normal functioning of the body, brain and the
mind. Children need 10 hours of sleep. The quality of sleep should also be good. The sound and
uninterrupted sleep is the required thing. There are many people whose spend sleepless days and
nights.
Physical exercises and meditation give us good sleep. Mind should not be resting.

bringing down the amount of work that he does everyday. Too much of sleep is also bad. In this
aspect an ideal person has bad health. Sleeping is not alone a single form of rest. We can also lie
down and take rest without going to sleep. Sitting without thoughts, lying on easy-chair, reading
books etc are also varies forms of rest. Normal amount of work, sufficient rest are best for good health.
