These words were uttered without thought after we finished our zen meditiation last night and the dharma master asked. I was still in the zone, I guess.

Perfectly sensible :)
It came from reading "Good Omens" a few too many times. It has to be one of the few modern fantasy books immersed in Christian Theology/Mythology that gives the Christian God respect.

I think it's even in one of the Biblical books. It's a very good word and yours is a very good answer.
