It was an ordinary day in Ningbo, China, but an extraordinary miracle took place in a muddy 5-metre ditch.这是一个普通的一天，宁波，而是一种特殊的奇迹发生在泥泞的5米长的壕沟。
Was it really a miracle, or simply the wise employment of a meditation technique?这真的是一个奇迹，或者仅仅是一个明智的就业冥想技术？ Maybe a combination of the two.也许两者兼而有之。
“Wang Jianxin was working at a construction site in the booming city. “王建新是工作在一个建筑地盘在蓬勃发展的城市。 The job that day for the 52-year-old worker was to dig a five-metre ditch…这一天的工作的52岁的工人挖一个5米长的沟...
“Without warning, a wall of the ditch collapsed, burying Mr Wang under a huge pile of earth. “在无任何警告的墙壁倒塌的沟，埋王先生根据大量的地球。 Like most construction workers in China, he had little in the way of protective equipment except for his tough plastic safety helmet.最喜欢的中国建筑工人，他没有什么方式防护设备除外强硬塑料安全帽。 It was to be enough to save his life.” [original article]这是足以挽救他的生命。 “ [原件文章]
The peak of his hat trapped a small amount of air in front of his face, which doctors said would usually have been enough to keep someone alive for five minutes.他的巅峰状态帽子被困少量的空气中他的脸前，医生说，通常已足以让别人活了5分钟。 It was two hours before he was rescued.这是前两个小时，他被救出。 Mr Wang survived by practising Buddhist meditation techniques to stay calm, and minimise his use of oxygen.王先生幸存的执业禅佛技术保持冷静，并尽量减少其使用的氧气。
There are countless legends from India of yogis, (obviously very advanced in their meditation practice) allowing themselves to be buried alive, and surviving for weeks or even years.有无数的传说来自印度的yogis ， （显然非常先进的冥想做法）让自己被活埋，和幸存的几个星期，甚至数年。 I’m not about to discuss the verity of such stories, (let alone their questionable spiritual worth), but if a construction worker can survive for 2 hours on 5 minutes’ worth of oxygen, who’s to say those legends aren’t true?我不打算讨论这些真实的故事， （更不用说他们质疑精神价值） ，但如果建筑工人能够存活长达2小时5分钟的氧气价值，谁在说这些传说都没有真的吗？ Just when you think you know what’s possible in this world, and what’s not…就在你以为你知道什么是有可能在这个世界上，有什么不...
“Be not afraid of the impossible. “不要害怕是不可能的。
Be brave!勇敢！
God is always ready to help you上帝总是愿意帮助你
Conquer the impossible.”征服是不可能的。 “
