Parallels to the near-death experience are found in Egyptian, Sumerian, Babylonian, Vedic Indian, and pre-Buddhist China
literature as well as pre-Columbian Mesoamerica writings.

Re: NDE roots of ancient Religions
Thank you rbrtcrrll224 - this is just the kind of book I would enjoy, particularly as it comes recommended for its sound research. If possible I'll download it onto my 3rd Kindle - they only last a year!
