गुड इवनिंग एवरीवन, वेलकम टू दिस इंटरनेशनल इवेंट TEDEd.

各位晚安，歡迎來到 TEDEd 國際盛會。

I want to tell you an incredible true story from Thailand.

我今天要跟大家分享一個來自泰國的真實奇聞。

情態副詞

Heavy rains suddenly flooded the Tham Nong Cave, trapping 12 young soccer players and their coach inside.

泰國的 Tham Nong Cave 因為豪雨突然淹水，困住了 12 位年輕的足球隊員和他們的教練。

For 9 days, they sat in a dark cave on a small piece of dry ground surrounded by rising water.

他們在黑暗的洞穴裡，坐在小小的乾地上，被不斷上漲的水圍繞了 9 天。

As the air became thin and the boys began to panic, their coach, who used to be among, calmed them down.

空氣越來越稀薄，男孩們開始恐慌，但曾經是隊員的教練安撫了他們。

Instead, he told them, "We are all afraid, but we share the same air.

反而告訴他們：「我們都會害怕，但我們呼吸著同一片空氣。

We must protect it." He taught them a simple practice called One Breath for All.

我們必須好好保護它。」他教了他們一個簡單的練習，叫做 One Breath for All。

He asked them to close their eyes and breathe together.

他請他們閉上眼睛，一起呼吸。

He told them to imagine inhaling to support the person on the left,

他要他們想像吸氣時，要支持左邊的人，

and exhaling peace for the person on the right.

並在吐氣時，為右邊的人送出平靜。

He told them, "We breathe as one." In the pitch black, the panic stopped.

他告訴他們：「我們同一個呼吸。」在伸手不見五指的黑暗中，恐慌停止了。

By breathing slowly and together, their hearts calmed down and they used less of the limited oxygen.

透過緩慢且一起的呼吸，他們的心平靜下來，也更有效利用了有限的氧氣。

They stopped acting like scared individuals and started acting like one single team.

他們不再像受驚的個體，而是像一個團隊般行動。

When rescue divers finally found them, they didn't find a group in chaos.

當搜救潛水員終於找到他們時，他們沒有看到一群陷入混亂的人。

They found 13 calm people sitting together in a circle meditating.

他們看到的是 13 位平靜地圍坐在一起冥想的人。

Please note that they all survived for 9 days just by doing meditation.

請注意，他們僅僅透過冥想就這樣生存了 9 天。

This real incident shows us that meditation is not just a way to relax.

這個真實的事件告訴我們，冥想不只是放鬆的方式。

It's the most powerful tool for survival that can turn a group of terrified individuals into a single resilient unit.

它是最強大的生存工具，能將一群驚恐的個體轉變成一個堅韌的整體。

The message of this incident is, when we realize we are all connected by a single breath, we can find the strength even during the most hopeless situations.

這個事件傳達的訊息是，當我們意識到我們都由同一個呼吸連結在一起時，即使在最無望的情況下，我們也能找到力量。

My name is Umera Anjum, studying 10th grade from ZPHS Kothapally, a gourneman school in Telangana.

我是 Umera Anjum，就讀於特倫甘納邦的 ZPHS Kothapally 政府學校十年級。

I'm here today to tell you that cave in Thailand is a metaphor for our world.

我今天在這裡要告訴大家，泰國的那個洞穴，其實是我們世界的縮影。

We are currently trapped in a cave of our own making, a cave of conflict, environmental crisis, and

我們現在就困在一個我們自己造成的洞穴裡，一個充滿衝突、環境危機和

We are gasping for air, fighting over resources, and panicking in the dark.

我們在黑暗中喘不過氣，為了資源爭奪，驚慌失措。

But I believe the world is only one breath away from peace.

但我相信，世界只需要一次呼吸，就能迎向和平。

Breathe is the first thing we do when we enter this world, and

呼吸是我們來到這個世界的第一件事，

也是我們離開這個世界時做的最後一件事。

Between those two moments lies an entire lifetime of potential.

在這兩個時刻之間，蘊藏著一整個人生的潛力。

And with it, the power to choose presents our reaction, compassion over anger, and connection over separation.

而藉由這份潛力，我們有力量選擇我們的回應，選擇慈悲而非憤怒，選擇連結而非分離。

My today's topic is One Breath for All: Global Meditation as a Peacekeeping Tool.

我今天要跟大家聊的主題是 One Breath for All：全球冥想作為維持和平的工具。

I want to be very clear, this is not religious.

People often ask, "Aren't we breathing now?" Yes, we are breathing, no doubt.

大家常常會問：「我們現在不是正在呼吸嗎？」沒錯，我們當然在呼吸。

One conscious breath creates a pause, a moment of attention.

一次有意識的呼吸，就能創造一個停頓，一個專注的時刻。

One breath can make you alive, but shared breath can guide the world to peace.

一次呼吸能讓你活著，但共享的呼吸能引導世界走向和平。

Our collective steps, aligned with intention, create direction to progress.

我們齊步前行，同心同德，就能開創前進的方向。

Please remember, breathing is not just a biological action.

請記得，呼吸不只是一個生理的動作。

It is the most universal tool humanity possesses.

We walk different paths and different paths.

我們走著不同的路，有著不同的步伐。

But our breath is the same, and that unites.

但我們的呼吸是相同的，這將我們連結在一起。

When we bring that walk into harmony, not by chance but by choice, we can turn the chaos of the world into something new, a collective path of calm and clarity.

當我們讓這步伐和諧一致，不是偶然而是刻意為之，我們就能將世界的混亂轉化為新的事物，一個集體的平靜與清晰之路。

When we breathe together, we think together.

當我們一起呼吸，我們就能一起思考。

There is an old saying, "A single calm breath can stop a storm that a thousand words cannot." Science backs this up.

有句老話說：「一陣平靜的呼吸能止住千言萬語也無法平息的風暴。」科學也證實了這一點。

During the 1980s, researchers studied large groups practicing collective meditation.

在1980年代，研究人員研究了大規模集體練習冥想的團體。

They found that when more people participated in group meditation, war-related deaths dropped by up to 76%.

他們發現，當越多人參與團體冥想時，與戰爭相關的死亡人數就下降了高達 76%。

Social indicators like crime and accidents also declined.

像是犯罪和意外等社會指標也隨之下降。

This is known as the Maharishi Effect, the proof that collective inner calm can influence the physical world even in places torn by war.

這被稱為「 Maharishi Effect」，證明瞭集體的內在平靜，即使在飽受戰爭蹂躪的地方，也能影響物理世界。

I invite you now to join me in a small practice.

現在，我邀請你跟我一起做個小練習。

Just for a moment, let us create our own field of calmness.

讓我們暫時創造一個屬於我們自己的平靜場域。

All the audience, please close your eyes and don't open until I say.

所有觀眾，請閉上眼睛，直到我說了再打開。

All the audience, please close your eyes and keep your spinal cord straight.

所有觀眾，請閉上眼睛，並保持脊椎挺直。

慢慢地吸氣，然後輕輕地吐氣。

Feel how something shifts in your chest, in your mind.

感受一下你的胸腔、你的思緒中，有什麼正在轉變。

When millions do it, it becomes a global field of calmness.

當數百萬人這麼做時，就會形成一個全球性的平靜場域。

Most of the tools for global peacekeeping require immense wealth, political permission, legal documents, and advanced technology.

大多數全球維和的工具都需要龐大的財富、政治許可、法律文件和先進的科技。

A breath cannot be hacked by a computer or stolen by an enemy.

呼吸不會被電腦駭客入侵，也不會被敵人偷走。

A breath does not know religion, race, or nationality.

It is the only peacekeeping tool that is truly universal, truly democratic, and entirely free.

它是唯一真正普世、真正民主且完全免費的維和工具。

Yet we ignore it in our highest institutions.

但我們卻在最重要的機構裡忽略了它。

We spend trillions on defense, but we spend nothing on the silence that prevents the need for it.

我們花費數兆美元在國防上，卻對能預防國防需求的寧靜毫無投資。

Today, I am making an appeal for a global shift in responsibility.

今天，我要呼籲一場全球責任的轉變。

Why can't every school begin with one minute of silent meditation?

為什麼沒有一間學校以一分鐘的靜默冥想開始呢？

Why can't it be a requirement in our parliaments and assemblies?

為什麼這不能成為我們國會和議會的必要項目？

Why can't it be practiced in our police stations and in our prisons?

為什麼這不能在我們的警察局和監獄裡實踐？

We should not do this as a tradition or religious rite.

我們不應該把它當作傳統或宗教儀式。

We have a responsibility to regulate our internal state before we attempt to regulate the world.

在我們試圖規範世界之前，我們有責任規範自己的內在狀態。

I appeal to you, before you react, breathe.

我懇請大家，在做出反應之前，先深呼吸。

Before your community feels divided, pause together and breathe.

在你的社群感到分裂之前，大家一起停下來深呼吸。

I hope my talk today is the beginning of a movement.

我希望我今天的演講能開啟一個運動。

Not a movement of protests or slogans, but a movement where peace is a daily practice.

不是一個抗議或口號的運動，而是一個將和平化為日常練習的運動。

A movement where one breath taken by many becomes the heartbeat of hope.

一個許多人共同深呼吸，成為希望脈動的運動。

May our breath guide us, may our intention unify us,

願我們的呼吸引導我們，願我們的意念團結我們，

and may this simple act, One Breath for All, become a permanent reminder that peace is not some distant, unreachable star.

願這個簡單的行動，One Breath for All，成為一個永恆的提醒，和平不是遙不可及的星星。

It is not something we wait for leaders to sign into law.

它不是我們等待領導人簽署成法律的東西。

Let meditation make the world peace and calm that breaks the walls of differences.

讓冥想為世界帶來和平與寧靜，打破差異的高牆。

It begins with each of us sitting in this auditorium, sharing the same air.

從我們坐在這個演講廳裡的每一個人開始，共享同一片空氣。
