You have directly hit the source of my own doubts, and no, my copy of the Anarchist's cookbook is in a box somewhere. I am in a quandary as to where random brain firings meet deep spiritual experience. I still believe that meditation and spells work, but does a near-collision with a deer on the road mean anything profound? Dunno. Seems like it would be a bad omen, but rarely does anything bad happen to me after a bad omen.....nope, bad things don't wait for omens. Neither do good things. :>
