唐謝敷姓張氏。頓得重病。其妻妾請眾僧。七日七夜。讀誦藥師經。滿夜敷夢。有眾僧以經卷覆身上。覺後平復如故。自謂經功力矣。

In the Tang, Xie Fu, whose surname was Zhang, suddenly fell gravely ill. His wives and concubines invited the assembly of monks to read and recite the Bhaiṣajyaguru-sūtra for seven days and seven nights. On the night it was completed, Fu dreamed that the monks covered his body with sūtra scrolls. After waking, he was restored to health as before; he attributed it to the meritorious power of the sūtra.
