John has no idea how much he is being loved by so many people.

Why wouldn't he?

I think he does.

ooh god finally I found a video that gives me tingles, ive been searching for so long cause I watched asmr for years now to help me sleep but lost the tingle feeling a year or so back and learn that watching to much can indeed make you stop feeling them but listening to this man just brought them back and I can feel them again the same feeling as when I watched ASMR for the first time

[@unintentionalasmrjohnbutler]

I'm so glad it worka for you again. Phil

[@MothershipOracle]

"the confidence to sit here without any notes" -all is calm, all is peace in the presence of God indeed! personaly, i've always believed for most of my 60 yrs of life, that everything is for a reason and a purpose" . it's fascinating to think about even a speck of dust, being under a "law" , just a breath of wind or movement can change the position of that speck of dust. all is held within conscienceness .God has his eye on everything. thanks so much john- you are a true inspiration, and always so calming to listen to, 😊

[@palatero]

The concepts I've heard John discuss are very tangental to Buddhism, especially in this video. It's cool to see someone arrive to the same conclusions that Eastern spirituality/philosophy does, but from a different perspective. Can anyone reading this tell me if John ever directly references Buddhism? I've taken time away from John's videos and return to them every so often, so please forgive the ignorance in my inquiry.
