In Western medicine, the condition known as epilepsy is often accompanied by exceptional physical and mental states which have been studied in great detail. Similarly, there is wealth of observations of patients suffering from coma, for example due to insulin deprivation. These observations are a relevant complement to the discussion of near-death and death.
