An Indian man presumed to have died after being bitten by a snake rose up from his own funeral pyre moments after it was set on fire - only to die 'again' after visiting a traditional healer.
The 23-year-old man, only known by his first name Sandeep, had gone to collect wood from the forest after leaving his village in Madhya Pradesh when he was bitten. Graphic photos of his body are below.
He was taken to a Tantric practitioner in the hope he could use traditional methods to save him - but it
appeared not to work and, believing he had lost his fight for life, relatives decided to burn his body at a local cemetery.
\
Relatives took him to the same Tantric practitioner instead of a hospital after he regained consciousness.
But his life could not be saved, and the Tantric declared Sandeep dead for the second time.
He was taken to the district hospital where a post mortem examination took place.
Tantra is an ancient Indian tradition of beliefs and meditation and ritual practices
In India, many superstitious beliefs and practices still occur on a daily basis especially in rural areas.
