I was elated by this section of the interview, Ian, because John was saying things that I totally identified with. My mother was Russian and brought me to Australia as a very small child where immigration policy of the time had me put into an orphanage until she could buy a house, which took almost 10 years. When I was released, I had had very little contact with my family, been raised as a Presbyterian, and knew not a word of Russian. I did go to Russian Orthodox Church but quickly became very skeptical about it, and with Christianity altogether and since then, struggled to reconcile with religion over most of my lifetime ... and I tried several. But in my late sixties, my family long dead, I rediscovered Orthodoxy, and entering an Orthodox Church for the first time in decades, I felt a total coming home, among my own people. That genetic connection has been very influential in other aspects of my life as well, even to the kinds of landscapes that I feel at home in. There is, I think, a. powerful genetic influence on our spiritual awareness that is not recognised by most. Studying Jung, I realise that his theories and his work were in many ways strongly influenced by his European background. I was so glad, therefore, to hear John Butler speak so frankly of this cultural influence on him.

I watched these videos parts 1&2 , three times and I have shared the links with several people . This man speaks so much truth in each statement, it takes time and a re-listening to let it all sink in. He speaks from the heart and he has gained so much wisdom in his 80 years of seeking and finding on his spiritual journey . I ordered his book 'Wonders of Spiritual Unfoldment" I believe he has a message for our generation. He spent all of his life in meditation and I love his concept of prayer which is really meditation by a different name . I especially love his humility and love which just flows from his spirit. I believe he has experienced the divine in such a very profound way , he has the spirit of the eternal Christ realized in his being, and he has so much to teach us. Thanks for posting these videos .
