And what the one consciousness of infinity feels like. 10/10 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Immensely valuable memoir that illuminates the psychology of awakening *by K***D on Reviewed in India on 20 April 2018* At some point, or many, in our lives, we are going to have a small or big 'awakening' to the true nature of our lives. From the perspective of the mind, this is a process that has many layers and deepens in many ways over time. When it occurs more powerfully, there is a distinction seen between on the one hand, the self, its fears and its desires, and on the other, the ground of all being from which the self arises, and in whose gaze the self is known. An exclusive identification with the self may give way to a different sense of what that reality expressing itself through this body and mind is. In the ancient texts of all religions, the culmination of this has been described by terms that are usually translated as enlightenment, freedom, realisation, deification, annihilation.Suzanne Segal's memoir is an intimate, vivid description of this, for the lack of a better word, 'process', although apparently one that does not reach full fruition, in the life of an ordinary person in modern times. The old self, with its fears and desires, continues, while a new aspect of life opens up in Segal's experience. The interaction between the old self, its hopes, simple joys, sexual life, anxieties, traumas, repressed memories, shocks and this unfathomable, infinite, vastness of energy that exploded into the body-mind that the author was is what this very honest book is about.Each person who has an awakening experience will have it in their unique way. There are as many journeys in this universe as there are persons. Yet, each person will, in their own way, experience the same duality of the relationship between the opening made by the awakening process and the old self. Unlike what many popular spiritual teachings claim, this, by no means, is necessarily an easy or pleasant process, but rather one that has traditionally been facilitated by the help of teachers and communities of people dedicated to it, all of them with the awareness of the darkness in the human soul that can be unleashed by the power of reality.In modern times, when such teachers and communities may not be easy to find, and where they are found, they may work against this process rather than for it - as can be seen in some of the scandalous and shadow sides of several spiritual organisations - this process may have to be lived alone for a long time, if not forever. New ways of associating with others on a similar journey are evolving, where authority and dogmatic knowledge are given a lower value than basic human relationship, but this is very much a work in progress.Suzanne Segal's memoir is then an immensely valuable document of such a life, and for anyone interested in understanding the dynamics of such a life. It serves as one illustration of a person's journey through the murky waters of awakening, the challenges and potentialities that lie therein. It also shows that 'awakening' is as old as human beings are - perhaps 2 million years - but in our century and the previous one, the forms it takes can be significantly different, even if the echoes of the realised beings of the past are never far away. It is as if, in our times, awakening is seeking individuals in who it can abide and flower, after the catalytic transformation of their mind and body. Like the author of this book, it may come to many who have no idea what it is and don't want it, and it may never come to those who religiously practice a technique to take them further in the spiritual life.Truly, it is a collision with the infinite that is being spoken about here. And this is among the most honest, moving and intense books written about it. If you have experienced having been hit and torn by an unknown force that pours in unceasing depths of energy, this book may help you find a rough map through reading the story of another human being who once had the same experience. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars It's interesting *by A***L on Reviewed in India on 1 June 2022* Page print is ok. The book itself gives a lot of insight. It was worth the read if you are looking for information on phases of higher consciousness. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/86405803-collision-with-the-infinite-a-life-beyond-the-personal-self](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/86405803-collision-with-the-infinite-a-life-beyond-the-personal-self) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-14*
