Impromptu #22 Invitation to the Work (ASMR friendly)

[@mmmfun77]

I always look forward to these videos. One of my best friends died two weeks ago. Too young to go. I’m so sad. I’ve been meditating more these days . I’m gradually accepting it in peace. I’ve been meditating and practicing present moment awareness for years. That stillness brings me pure joy . I thank you Sir for being my reminder to ‘keep doing the work’. This work has profoundly changed my life and those around me….

Sad to hear that. Acceptance is a balm. Phil

[@richiehustle]

Hope you holding up well

[@Phoenix258]

Sorry for the loss, big hugs 🤗

[@cis4coffee]

I hope you are able to come to terms with the loss you experienced. Acceptance and stillness are key. You can't change what has happened, but your life must move forward. Your friend will still be with you, but you'll connect in the stillness and the calm you create.

The silence inbetween his talking really helps me fall asleep

I like to imagine meeting god would be like meeting John. How comforting ☺️

[@trudesquires1089]

Precious advice . It was the third year anniversary of losing my dear Dad yesterday, and of discovering John on Utube the day after he died. Xxxx

[@caroledrury1411]

He himself speaks calmer and calmer which in and of itself is so inspiring . To know that we can reach that point as well!

Lost my father to COVID in Jan 2021. I am yet to come out of the grief. I read your comment elsewhere about "acceptance is a balm" but I just cannot accept he is no more in physical form. Worse is was & am in a different country. He died alone in a cold hospital room. I want him back with me here so I can keep him in comfort. I last saw him a year before he left us😭

[@bruceshaw2402]

You haven't lost your father he will be with you for the rest of your life , he hasn't gone he’s just in another place , you didn't grieve over not being with him when his physical body was here , your only grieving for yourself , accept the inevitable and live your life .

What a beautiful man with such inspiring and truthful words. Thank you John

[@NowhereNonduality]

Thank you as always. Much love to you, John and Phil. God bless the work ❤️

[@Ilive_420]

Such a calm voice, I love to hear this falling asleep but it's also interesting so I want to stay awake 😄

[@gavinspeaks]

Allow your heart the space it needs to manifest your highest desires into existence. When you really just let things be, and detach from all outcomes, you give life the opportunity and space to work in your favour. When there is space you can manifest even more and finally receive what you have been waiting for. I set another intention for anyone who reads this, I promise what you desire is on its way. I am sending you love and strength. You are Appreciated & Loved You are Accepted and Supported. Trust in yourself and Trust in life. ~Much Love from a Law of Attraction KZbinr💜

[@mmmfun77]

Perfectly said. Mental space brings clarity and clarity is absolutely priceless. I always say, by doing the work, you are making more room for greater things to come.

[@SpiritualUnfoldment]

First in again Gavin. You’re on it! Phil

Helps me get calm. But I really haven't learned to meditate. But I do enjoy dozing off. Kudos on your inspiring journey, John.

[@pauldaviesantiques1556]

Beatific & beautiful.

[@donnypicz]

Love John, Love Phil, love the videos… only suggestion is the audio. Upgrading to a higher quality recorder with better mic pre amps will reduce that noise (Zoom F3 would be perfect, or even a Tascam DR10L which records directly to the small clip-on device). And a higher quality lavalier mic to clip onto John would make a huge difference and reduce the room noise as well. In rooms with heavy reverb like the church, using a mic with a built in “high pass filter” will bring down that harsh resonance. Also for the outdoor videos there should always be a fuzzy windscreen on the lavalier itself to reduce the wind noise and possibly for indoors as well to reduce fabric noise from rubbing on John’s shirt. Just some suggestions from an audio nerd lol thank you so much for the work you put into these videos :)

[@andrew213rn]

Great to see you doing well sir

[@murdoch6738]

Thank you John 😊 Please make a video about your crazy times and funny moments..have you ever smoke weed...or drink alcohol or any type of drugs... . I want to know you more!!!!

I begin watching hoping to be annoyed - and end by being calmed.

[@bradleywelsh5115]

Been listening to john for years now! He’s my nightly ritual before bed and look forward to a new video every time it comes out :) I was wondering Phil if john could do any talks around OCD, and obsessive thoughts, and or if he can do en episode just focused on thoughts? Any help would be great, thank you! Brad

[@arch_stanton100]

John I have often thought about close friends and loved ones that have passed away throughout my lifetime, and about where they (their) spirits might be right now. Do you believe that they're at peace? How do you cope with the loss of friends and family that pass onto the next life? Do you believe we will all achieve true peace when we pass or is that dependent on each individual and how they've lived their life?

[@1crazysk8er]

We should connect sometime John! Im certain we can share some unique philosophy of our own with one another! I love your work with the videos and even before Ive become acquainted with you and them I have been also meditating for years prior with self dedicated passion and purpose of which you also share the same passions and purposes to which often explain and elaborate about! Nontheless as aforementioned I would love to connect with you sometime as I'm sure we would find it fruitful to one another and your work even! Thanks again for your persistent efforts and dialogues! #FeetontheGround #Meditation #Stillness

Thanks Daniel - come to Bakewell! Or ask a question. Phil

[@1crazysk8er]

@@SpiritualUnfoldment The invitation is sincerely appreciated and I may just be in a position to take you up on the offer down the road over the next 6 to 12 months whereas I just have a few very important matters to close out before partaking in such an exciting adventure to Beautiful Bakewell. Until then I will try and throw you a few questions along the way as they come to mind in between the day to day way over here. Many Blessings! - Daniel

[@Leebabins]

“Faith is the evidence of things not seen”? You mean the “belief” of things not seen. There is certainly no evidence of it. But you believe. Belief.

[@mikefoster5277]

Evidence is always limited to and by our human perception of it. In fact, there's plenty of evidence, is there not, to suggest that reality itself and perception are not only closely correlated, but might ultimately even be the same thing? If that were indeed the case, then what would be the definition of 'evidence'? It would mean merely, _that which is perceived_ - whether inwardly or outwardly.

Are we not warned not to tread in the world of meditation? We could be consumed into satans realm instead of GOD?
