His life becomes swallowed up

remaking of the field of consciousness,
an alteration in the self's attitude to the world.
Conversion is often a sudden, intense
joyous perception of God, immanent
in the universe; of the divine beauty
and unutterable splendor of a larger life,
wherein the individual is immersed.
He begins a new life lived by the self
in accordance with this now new
dominant fact of existence.
