I don't know if there are statistics on this, or if the answer depends on the denomination, but are Christians usually consciously aware of the first time they received the Holy Spirit? Is the reception of the Holy Spirit for the first time an unmistakable, life-changing, [self-evident](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-evidence) experience/event that most Christians can easily remember, the date of which they can easily pinpoint on a calendar?
I'm interested in an **overview of Christian viewpoints** on these questions.
