Is the mat the place to get the spiritual experiences? I usually go into blank mind mode on the mat.

It could be said, instead of "blank mind" -beginners mind. Empty mind.
Open mind.
Inclusive mind.
Mindful mind.
If your mind isn't what's moving you, then possibly it is Spirit.In my dojo we call it "It".When I am open to "It" technique flows smoothly, when my mind is prevalent, technique goes all to heck.So to me, every "effortless" technique I can manage is a Spiritual experience.
