Publisher's summary

While Life as Play chronicles the author's life-long spiritual journey, his goal is to provide a road map for those seeking Oneness with Everything.

In its audio, you will discover how to allow your innate Playful essence to express itself in every moment. Think of Mark's story as a tour and initiation into a life of Play. This book is filled with tales of the unexpected and the unique circumstances that characterize a life of Play.

This is not a book about playing. It is a Playful book. The most consistent theme throughout this book is that of the power of synchronicities to encourage a life of Play and how it reveals the interconnectedness of all creation. So, if an ordinary person like Mark can Play in every instant, then you surely can too.

This book also includes chapters on integral thinking; the fun and difficulty of translating Chinese; Feng Shui; sensing our auric bodies; death and immortality; reincarnation; and enlightenment. One chapter focuses on how we are doomed if we do not get in touch with and integrate our subconscious. Pay close attention to that one. This book ends with the nine precepts of Play.

Hopefully, you will recognize this Playful place within yourself, and allow it to expand. To the extent Mark's life has gone beyond the norm, may it inspire you to take the plunge into the unknown in your own life. And now, join the cosmic jester and universal trickster as he meanders his way through a life of Play. Let the mystery, magic, and miracles begin!

Mark J Johnson is the real deal

I Love this book, Life As Play, almost as much as I love/idolize Mark J Johnson. He is the real deal. He can heal with energy!

In 1993, following a Tai Chi workshop in St. Louis, the class was invited to join Mark for dinner (Dutch treat) at a Thai restaurant on South Grand Avenue, The King And I. It was my lucky day! On my left sat my Tai Chi teacher, Margaret Muskopf, and on my right sat Mark Johnson, our special guest instructor.

In short, Mark placed one hand on my back for the purpose of healing, imparting so much energy that life-long neck pain was healed. For the next week, I literally felt a ring of energy both inside and outside of my neck slowly uncompressing the discs. The old pain never returned. I didn't know how much it hurt until it stopped.

About this book, I love my paperback version of Life As Play, autographed by the author, as well as the Audible version. His vast experience with world religions is impressive. Among his many talents, Mark is a great storyteller, and I love to hear him laugh. Too bad that Mark was not the narrator. This guy is good, but he's not Mark.
