Impromptu #23 Keeping peace

[@Finny14754]

I use John to help me sleep , his voice is so relaxing.

I concur! He has a soothing voice that’s easy on the ears.

[@caroledrury1411]

So kind. So thoughtful. So genuine. So real to life. I like the repetition. He seems to give us the same message over and over and yet every time it feels like the first time. It’s a great reminder to keep repeating the same message.

Evening John, My wife and I bumped into you very briefly three weeks ago in Bakewell church. We visit churches when we visit various areas of the country and Bakewell's is a very interesting example. We made ourselves scarce when you walked in as we didn't want to interrupt your peace. It's certainly worth that walk up the hill. Gob bless you and take care.

[@SpiritualUnfoldment]

Always say hello to John! He loves visitors. Phil

I never miss your KZbin vlogs, John... You still help me so much even after several years now. Thank you so much once again. ... You are just on my same wavelength! Then again, you are on the same wavelength I am sure with many, many peace-loving people! God Bless you always. (I truly don't think you do need to apologize for quoting from the Bible...

Thank you for your wonderful videos. I resource them when I need a clearer head or need to get in touch with my inner self. I was wondering if you could provide a little guidance by talking about how you might explain death/Heaven to a younger person or child? I have this task upon my shoulders and I'm afraid to do it poorly. Sending you love from Nova Scotia -Doug

[@SpiritualUnfoldment]

What a great comment and a great question. I will ask John. For what it’s worth my dear friend, someone told me recently that they view death not as losing someone but as returning someone. Phil

Phil, is John doing well? I’ve noticed a lot of the recent posts are older videos remixed for asmr

[@SpiritualUnfoldment]

Thanks for asking - John is fit and well and receiving visitors although there will be no more organised retreats. All of the morning talks by John on previous retreats were recorded and we are releasing them one by one over time. If people want to see them all, we may put them out in a separate mini channel or playlist. We are soon releasing a new sister channel “Unintentional ASMR with John Butler“ where we will put all the ASMR videos to make them easier to find. Phil

Dear Mr Trippy - Phil here. Where did you get the idea that comments are screened? They are not and John reads all of them. It has been my policy from the start that we do not screen or sensor comments. A healthy community is self monitoring don’t you think?
