5.64

又正法念經云。若有眾生見諸病人。施其湯藥令離病苦。命終生欲境天。受五欲樂。從天命終。若得人身大富多財。若見病人臨終渴病。以石蜜漿若氷水施此人。命終生清涼天。受天快樂。從天命終得受人身。常離飢渴。

The Saddharmasmṛtyupasthāna-sūtra also says: If there are beings who see sick people and give them hot decoctions and medicine to free them from the suffering of illness, upon the end of their lives they will be born in the Heaven of the Realm of Desire to enjoy the five sensory desires; when their lives end in that heaven, if they obtain a human body, they will be immensely rich and have much wealth. If one sees a sick person near death suffering from thirst-disease and gives this person cane-sugar syrup or ice water, upon the end of life they will be born in the Cool Heaven to enjoy heavenly bliss; when their life ends in that heaven and they obtain a human body, they will forever be free from hunger and thirst.
