Special Experiences might cure Disease instantly..

Once when Venerable Girimananda was sick, the Buddha said to Ven. Ānanda.
What is the experience of acute Awareness by in-&-out Breathing?
It is when a Bhikkhu, who have gone to the forest, or to the root of a tree,
or to an empty hut, sits down cross-legged, having straightened his body and
back, and set up awareness around the nostrils, then just plainly aware of only
that breathing in itself, he breathes in, and then just solely aware of only that
breathing in itself, he then breathes out...
1: Breathing in-&-out long, he knows, notes, and understands: I in-&-exhale long..
2: Breathing in short, he knows, notes, and understands: I in-&-exhale short..
3: He trains thus: Experiencing this entire body, I will breathe in-&-out..
4: He trains thus: Calming all bodily activity, I will breathe in-&-out..
5: He trains thus: Experiencing an enraptured joy, I will breathe in-&-out..
6: He trains thus: Experiencing a happy pleasure, I will breathe in-&-out..
7: He trains thus: Experiencing all mental activity, I will breathe in-&-out..
8: He trains thus: Calming all mental activity, I will breathe in-&-out..
9: He trains thus: Experiencing the present mood, I will breathe in-&-out..
10: He trains thus: Elating and gladdening the mind, I will breathe in-&-out..
11: He trains thus: Focusing and concentrating the mind, I will breathe in-&-out..
12: He trains thus: Releasing and liberating the mind, I will breathe in-&-out..
13: He trains thus: Considering impermanence, I will breathe in-&-out..
14: He trains thus: Considering disillusion, I will breathe in-&-out..
15: He trains thus: Considering ceasing, I will breathe in-&-out..
16: He trains thus: Considering relinquishment, I will breathe in-&-out..
Having learnt and memorized these 16 simple steps from the Blessed One,
the Venerable Ānanda went to the Venerable Girimananda and recited these 16
steps to him. Then as soon as Venerable Girimananda heard these 16 simple steps
and the ten experiences his illness instantly subsided, and he rose from his bed..
This was thus the way Venerable Girimananda was cured from his sickness....
