(I-tuan), see Does Zen believe in a soul? - However, the Buddha taught that there are no such things as a permanent Self or Soul which can be reincarnated or reborn after death (Rahula, 1974: page 3). The Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh believes there is no reincarnation in Buddhism (Miller, 2012).
see What is a Zen spirit? - Zen is defined as a state of calm where actions are guided by intuition rather than by conscious effort. The term comes from the Japanese pronunciation of the Chinese word Chan – with roots to the Indian practice of thinking and meditating known as Dhyana.

see Is Zen ok for Christians? - Because they are not on the same plane, Zen and Christianity do not conflict. Graham in his book, Zen Catholicism also points out that there is no harm in applying Zen insights into Catholicism.
see Does Zen believe in afterlife? - In Zen, Life and Death are one, a continuum, and they are not separated and there is no dividing line between them (as, indeed, there is actually no dividing line between anything, there only seems to be – divisions are arbitrary and made to enable us to function in the finite world, what Zen calls 'the world of form') ...10.03.2014

In Erkrath, the observation of dying and dead bees and bumblebees, particularly since around 2000, could be linked to various factors, including pesticide use, habitat loss, and climate change. These factors can weaken bee populations, making them more susceptible to diseases and other stressors. Additionally, some species of lime trees, while producing abundant nectar, may also contribute to bumblebee mortality towards the end of their flowering season due to reduced energy reserves and the bees' weakened state.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Potential Causes:
Pesticides:
Beekeepers in Germany have pointed to new pesticides as a potential cause of bee die-offs. Pesticides can directly harm or weaken bees, making them more vulnerable to other threats.
Habitat Loss and Fragmentation:
The destruction of natural habitats reduces the availability of food sources and nesting sites for bees, impacting their overall health and survival.
Climate Change:
Extreme temperatures, especially heat, can negatively affect bee populations. Bumblebees, in particular, are vulnerable to heat stress.
Diseases and Parasites:
Bees are susceptible to various diseases and parasites, such as tracheal mites, which can cause significant colony losses.
Lime Tree Nectar:
While not definitively proven as a cause of death, some research suggests that the nectar of certain lime tree species (like Tilia tomentosa) may weaken bumblebees, especially towards the end of their flowering season. This is likely due to a combination of factors, including reduced nectar availability and the bees' weakened state as they age.
End of Life Cycle:
Many bees, especially older ones, naturally die away from the hive, a behavior that helps prevent the spread of diseases within the colony.
Predation:
Weakened bees are more susceptible to predation by other insects or animals.
Observations and Research:
Mass Die-offs:
In some regions of Germany, beekeepers have reported significant losses of bee colonies, with some experiencing over 50% mortality.
Bumblebee Mortality Under Linden Trees:
Research has shown that bumblebees are often found dead or dying under linden trees, particularly during the end of their flowering period.
Children's Engagement:
In one instance, children's encounters with dying and dead bees sparked curiosity and research into bee biology and pollination, leading to a deeper appreciation for these insects.
Spiritual Significance:
Some people view the presence of dead bees as carrying spiritual messages of transformation or the end of a cycle.
Important Considerations:
Complex Interactions:
Bee deaths are rarely caused by a single factor, but rather by a complex interplay of various stressors.
Global Perspective:
While bee populations are facing challenges in some regions, particularly in Europe and North America, they are increasing in other parts of the world.
Ongoing Research:
Scientists continue to study the causes of bee decline and develop strategies to protect these vital pollinators.
