Only to the ones that choose not to hear him. This older man is an asset to humanity. Long ago he would have been a chief or what have you. People hundreds of years ago felt more for one another than they did for themselves . A cow being purchased for his family provided milk ,milk was more calories for the family more array of baked goods...it was gold. Many oeople hundreds of years ago didnt own a mirror....life was not in a bubble in those days. It wasnt selfish it wasnt about yourself. It was pure. People really could hear the birds the crickets and care deeply for one another. People could really see life. Life shouldnt be selfish and it shouldnt be about yourself but about others. When you deeply care more about others you give yourself a gift,its fullfilling . Love penetrates everything it touches and spreads. In the Bible it says love by neighbor as you love yourself... How many people can actually do that. I know that is something I'm working on presently. Nowadays you hear people talking about you should make yourself come first there's videos on it Everywhere.

I am an actor, and in my professional training I was taught that when you're in the scene, there's nothing to think about. In fact, if you're thinking, you will be so consumed with thoughts of "What is coming next?" or "Will I fail if I do this gesture?" that actually the life you were supposed to be living had already passed with you missing it, completely. His talk of when we are so lost in our thoughts, and complications we lose sight of common sense is so true and my whole career is in trying to replicate it under imagined circumstances. That is what acting is - living truthfully under imaginary circumstances.

[@thechosenpit]

i'm also autistic! i'm fairly sensory-avoidant, but at times (especially when i'm understimulated, "bored" or generally dissatisfied with my surroundings) i can be sensory seeking. sometimes loud voices, *perfectly* loud voices, are also captivating. for example, today in one of my classes, we had a guest speaker that had the most beautiful projection, his "lecture" or "speech" felt more like a conversation, and he had just the right amount of inflection and passion. although it wasn't soft or a whisper, it had the same... elements...? of an what i look for in asmr voices... i'm probably not making any sense, it's late & i'm exhausted, and i don't really even know why i felt the need to yap here tbh. also, you're absolutely right, his voice brings me a peace i don't usually get to feel throughout my day. very relaxing.

[@_Apple_bees.]

​@senpit im the same way! i can very much be sensory-avoidant. like when my little sister hugs me, i panic and like try not to cry, its weird ik. but the times i do sensory seeking like stuff. its normal for me to just randomly hug my mom or i'll just cry because i like the feeling of it. and the asmr part you were talking about, when it comes to asmr, people really just whisper and dont use their real voices because well- its loud and asmr is relaxing. so when this guy talks, you can tell hes not forcing the volume of his tone of voice. and bye the way! i dont mind what you call yapping, im doing hw rn and reading that gave me something to do. edit: i was in my kitchen and remembered something i could add onto what i said. i can handle loud noises at times. like my taste in music is heavy metal. but i went to a concert not to long ago and i got so overstimulated so fast by how loud the speakers got. i was so overstimulated to the point where i was crying in the bathroom, trying to calm myself down

[@joxii__]

He reminds me so much of like narrators from British kids shows I watched when I was younger which makes his voice even more comforting

[@StoatoftheSouth]

Yes, I agree 90's vibes

[@Peace-t1z]

Awwww what a blessing he is. Humble is refreshing 🧡☀️

[@mochi2187]

I wish this man all good in his life and forward, the way he calls the interviewer “dear”, his passions are pure like his soul and is genuinely the sweetest man I’ve seen/heard ❤ protect this man at all costs, he deserves all good in life 🥺❤️

[@maryannt.8577]

He's actually deep. I like listening to his words. Full of wisdom😮💗

[@fayenash2152]

I dont know why but this man triggers so much emotion in me good bad and soothing, his energy in person but be so calm and gentle but full of wisdom!

[@leomcgrail863]

He thinks about what he says before he speaks, makes sure he doesn’t say anything unnecessary. Short meaningful and sweet

[@jamiethorpe5431]

One of the most non click bait titles I’ve ever come across…2 seconds in I knew I was in trouble…lol. I’m not sure if it’s his tone, accent, pronunciation, tempo or what but his voice exudes peace, tranquility and trust

[@patpatmoomoo5524]

02:10 the heavy pensive breathing got me so sleepy

[@etchieSketchie]

What he said around minute 44:00 to 44:40 moved me emotionally.

[@SJSequoyah-oj4eq]

Oh my... I love that so much. Like I'm not even being that one person on the internet when I say that it just... It's indescribable.

[@Lukazoid2001]

"because after all, what is spiritual experience? It's just what's natural... like the look in a dogs eyes" wow.

[@kenzahamdi1843]

He looks soo precious and cute i just wanna hug him and cry

[@リーンベル-y5k]

3:58 I was struck by how cute his Wink was😊😌

[@CherryAkuma]

very very cute and so earnest!

[@Tasuke]

Congrats on doing this interview with him! He has a very calming voice and as a spiritual person myself, I resonate with his mindset. I hope he continues to enjoy success.

[@crazyfaith77]

He has a beautiful voice. Very relaxing and calming. The love of my life has the most beautiful voice and when he talks relaxes my whole body. Beautiful voices.

[@nicoloferone3606]

People like this man make me ponder and I just love it. It doesn't matter what do I ponder about, for in the end I'm either left with a beautiful painting of answers clear in my mind or a slightly colored canvas, ready to be explored in all of its future shapes and colors for another time to come. I am glad to the universe for helping me find this video, another beautiful epiphany of creation.

[@diachv998]

Such a pure soul and his voice takes me in a meditation state of mind, I ABSOLUTELY LOVED LISTENING TO THIS INTERVIEW!❤

[@louisefrezell]

He has the most gentle voice! Calming, like a gentle breeze that whispers wisdom softly to ease worries away.😌

[@tl5318]

No other intentional or unintentional ASMR comes close to Mr. Butler's. No day goes by that I do not listen to his videos. I love you Mr. Butler. You are a rare gem.

[@joejones8776]

@2:05 Just look at that long pause for a rather simple question, the first question at that! Most people would just start immediately rambling on to avoid and fill the silence but not this guy! John Butler is a man who is as confident as he is sincere and passionate.

[@rochelle1055]

This man is the wisest man I've ever seen. The world would be so much better if everyone had a grandpa like this.

[@Elijah_Jello]

he sounds like winnie the pooh

[@astrogliding]

He is incredible!! This is the inspiration and information that should be plastered everywhere instead of reality television.

[@SandraLopata]

I just happened upon this message and it is a wonderful gift. John's voice is so relaxing. He is so privileged to be so calm. And I love that he easily mentioned sin is not good. He is so humble and loving.

[@liamgerrard2246]

jaw dropping that this even exists - the internet can be a wonderful thing somtimes

[@lizramallo847]

Because of your channel I discovered John Butler's videos. I listen to him very often to relax and I feel I get so much more than that. He's such wise and peaceful person.

[@SpeckledR0SE]

I would listen to this man for hours and not get bored.

[@charlief0898]

Thanks for the interview ! I’ve been watching both of you for a couple years now nice to see the collaboration and the new post in 9 months ! :)

[@PureUnintentionalASMR]

Glad you enjoyed it! Promise it won't be another 9 months before I post again!

[@fintonstack1608]

This is delightfully outstanding, a real treat. Thank you! Christmas has come early indeed 🎄😴

[@PureUnintentionalASMR]

Thanks so much! Glad you liked it.

[@SKORPIO_228]

Such a pleasant grandpa, I want to hug him so much

[@rajmathew6220]

I just want to hug this man, something so pure and lovable about him.

[@HeinrichDorfmann]

It's always difficult to accept praise. Unless you're Mr. Butler. Congrats John, you passed the test admirably.

[@Molly-Pop]

I love when the algorithm gives me good things. Host John has a delightful accent which is a pleasure to listen to, and Guest John is how I imagined Albus Dumbledore to sound when I first read the books at 11 years old. Thoughtful, choosing his words carefully and deliberately, wise, and gentle. What a wonderful thing this is.

[@Metfan1986]

John is so genuine and authentic. I love how he answers each question with great thought to how he puts his words together.

[@uncommonbby]

I listened to him when you first posted. John exudes calmness and makes you feel at peace. I'm so happy you got to interview him!

[@worldlove2.0]

I have been struggling to sleep for a while now, but this instantly calmed me, and just after 3 minutes, I passed out. Thank you so much for uploading this interview!
