I think the psychological experience of "near death" is different for everyone. I had a head trauma and didn't see any white light or anything, but did experience that whole "life flashes before your eyes" thing. Mainly it is how your brain is dealing with the process of what you are going through: pain, low blood flow to the brain, chemical imbalances, medication, trauma, shock is another good one. I think there is some research on the whole white light thing you can find on the internet.
Good luck on your search for answers though!

It's a good subject and an interesting question...
My position on the whole "near death thing" is that it is the result of hypoxia, lack of oxygen to the brain. The subject has been studied enthusiastically and there are plenty of accounts from subjects taking part in experimentation - they describe sights, sounds and feelings which are very like the near death accounts without the confusion of fear or wonderment about death itself. Because they were in a "safe" position, under the care of observers, they all merely reported their experience rather than speculate on it.
Try reading up on "oxygen deprivation," "hypoxia," and "general anesthetics." You may get some insight into your present understanding of the subject.
To answer your question directly... there is neither anything behind nor in front of one during death (outside of the consideration of time,) and there is nothing pulling or pushing one along. It isn't a spiritual thing at all - it's merely a physical and chemical change within the brain that causes a distorted perception of reality.

Actually your question is not that stupid. In 1974 I took an overdose of Valium. While in the ambulance my spirit left my body. I could see it as it gathered above me. Then I could see my body on the gurney. .Then I was out side the ambulance just floating. I remember thinking how peaceful this was. I wanted to stay right there. Then I looked forward and saw a rim of light on a horizon. It was just a bead of light but it was brilliant. I wanted to go there. I reached for it. I guess God had more for me to do. Then I heard the attendant say to the ambulance driver "you had better step on it". I knew where in town we were. I could not respond to the attendant. Then I woke up in ER after they pumped my stomach. So I am glad that God saw fit to keep me here for I would have missed out on a lot of grandchildren.

Under anasthesia, while on the operating table
I was falling into a deep dark tunnel with a light
at the end. I was awaken before I reached the
light. I don't know, if this was a near death
experience, but to this day, the experience remains very vivid in my mind.
