The efficacy of the Sarvaushadhi labdhi is so great, that rain water or river water acquires the medicinal power of removing diseases, and persons who have fainted, gain consciousness by the wind, touching the bodies of such yogis or saints. The diseases of people afflicted with serious troubles, not only subside, but disappear totally merely by the presence of such a yogi or a saint or even by hearing his sound.

He can experience the pleasures or pains of all the senses thru the medium of one sense-organ; for instance, although hearing can be done only by the ear, any one out of the five sense-organs can, not only do the function of hearing but also perform the functions of the remaining sense-organs.
