Has anyone had this experience?

I was in a library, and there was a book on the shelf that got my attention. On the binding looked like Hebrew or Arabic charectors in gold leaf. I couldn't read them; I knew I couldn't. But I knew that the letters said it was a holy book of some sort. I knew this as if they had said "Bible" or "Koran" or "Tao te Ching" in English, as if I was reading Hebrew or Arabic.

So I took it down the book, and opened it up randomly. The black marks on the page at first looked again like Hebrew, but they moved and scrambled around and re-arranged themselves in front of my eyes, and suddenly I was reading English. (anyone remember the cartoon about ants and musical notes?) But I wasn't really reading, because I couldn't focus on the words; they wouldn't hold still. But I "knew" what they were saying. I dont' remember what it was, but I do recall it was the message I was hoping to wake up with.
