And how would we differentiate these experiences you claim are 'real spiritual' experience, and an experience caused purely by the brain under the stress of being close to dying?

How do you know this? Please don't quote a text, a guru or someone's personal experience.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
