### [9.59](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2059.9.59)

尚方暑中。有一人病癥將死。域以應器著病者腹上，白布通覆之，呪願數千言，即有臭氣薰徹一屋。病者曰：「我活矣。」域令人舉布，應器中有若垽淤泥者數升，臭不可近，病者遂活。

> In the Directorate of Imperial Manufactories, there was a man who had an abdominal obstruction and was on the point of death. Jīvaka placed an alms bowl upon the patient's belly, covered it completely with white cloth, and recited incantations of several thousand words. Immediately a foul stench filled the entire room. The patient said, 'I will live!' Jīvaka ordered someone to lift the cloth; inside the bowl were several sheng of substance like dregs and silt, so foul that one could not approach it. The patient thereupon survived.
