Impromptu #21 The one I am (ASMR friendly edit)

[@nolank19]

Hi John. The world needs your kind of compassion and presence on a tragic day like today. Sending love to all.

[@johnnicholls5284]

True

[@billygibson4134]

As 64 year old man. I feel I am old and wise (an unspiritual individual) however listening to this man I always feel I have so much to learn. And to the younger folk, who may feel they have grasped life and learned all there is to know, listen to every word this man says, in every video . Would love to be able to pass on as much knowledge as John.

[@mmmfun77]

These videos are a meditation in itself! God bless❤

My Grandfather chose to come home from the hospital and is dying at home from liver cancer. It's messy but I'm glad I have this last opportunity to serve and show practical love to him in his last days. He's a true gentleman from the Sth of England and I'm going to miss him.

[@Odile303]

Much love and strenght to you and your grandfather and family🌹

[@eileen7466]

My heart and Spirit are with you sweet man. Jesus is with your Grandfather. His arm is around you. He is directing and nursing and loving right there beside you. Eileen ♡

[@clairedarcy5533]

Stay strong buddy

[@jeffreybarton1297]

Wonderful. Quite a few times I've felt that need to wash Jesus' feet, while I pray or meditate on him. Your video reminded me that I need to talk less, while in prayer, and let God have the space to talk to me.

[@franbelnome9489]

Bless your sweet kind sharing heart John. 😇🥰

[@SwanRonsonDonnyJepp]

@@franbelnome9489 Nice 😁

[@darrylschultz9395]

It would've been normal for people's feet to be dirty 2,000 years ago, so he probably wouldn't have appreciated anyone washing them.

[@lheuvelman336]

Dear John, Thank you for these wonderful videos. Although there are things I see differently from you, I love listening to you and you opened my eyes on our egos and how they are responsible for all the suffering in the world. When you were young you wanted to make the world a better place, but you felt you failed to do so. Now, I believe with your videos you achieved this after all. So many people are listening to your words and some of us will try to remember life is not all about me and what I want, hence inspiring us to try and be better. Thank you.

[@MrOzkanil]

Uncle John is becoming younger and younger. God bless you uncle.

[@trudesquires1089]

Watching, and listening in silence John,with attentive, respectful gratitude, and feeling deeply moved by your wisdom and guidance❤ Thank you, and thank you Phil 😊

[@Aum_shantishantishanti111]

Oh dear John just want to convey gratitude, you’ve been with me since I’ve started on this journey of coming home to my heart.

[@Ida983-v2w]

Dear John, been listing to this on a loop, wanting so much your words to sink in forever with me. It’s so easy to forget, you’re so right. Lots of love ❤ S

[@NowhereNonduality]

Thank you for making these videos available, John and Phil. Always gracious and beautiful.

[@SpiritualUnfoldment]

Glad you find them helpful. Phil

[@dorothysay8327]

I am very moved by YOU, John Butler. You are as an image of the living God.

[@p.p.6133]

What fascinates me most about a human being is its face. When I see John's face, I understand better why Jesus once said: whoever has seen me has also seen my Father. I think therefore that the human face - and not the Nature - is the best place for God's revelation. I'm curious what John thinks of this! Greetings from Germany

[@maria6923]

@@p.p.6133 I think it is wonderful.I also love looking in Johns eyes and I thought..may be we are looking in Jesus’ eyes.greetings from Holland

[@mzhavisham6738]

Beautiful again John as you say in silence, just this morning on a very wet and windy day I was enjoying a nice hot cup of tea in my quiet kitchen and a little prayerful thought of complete peace and satisfaction came over me, where I was very aware of my existence in that moment and to be thankful that this little cup of tea will someday be my last. Love to you John.

[@simpleuser0001]

Reminds me of my recent study on Ramana Maharshi; who emphasized the "I am" through self inquiry. This is in the core of my meditation along with being still and present. It is to know the true self that is the ultimate liberation.

[@sharonoleary5584]

Thank you John for such encouraging words. I came to visit All Saints Church Bakewell last Monday 21.8.23 hoping to see you. What a beautiful vibrant place. I can understand why you enjoy meditating there. 🙏😊

[@tomekgorniak]

Thank you

[@jameswoolley979]

I find myself watching Mr Butlers videos day in day out and I’m not particularly spiritual, maybe I’m too early on in understanding. Nevertheless it’s very soothing and I’m fascinated. My job is often unbelievable stressful in the armed forces and this helps me unwind more than I can put to words. It’s very appreciated.

[@SpiritualUnfoldment]

Thanks for sharing that James - John often says meditation is about coming to rest ... peace. Phil

[@maxv4655]

The Good Lord protect your paths and each one of your steps Mr. Butler🙂

[@maria6923]

Wonderful ro listen to you, dear John Butler,It touches my heart and I love looking in tour eyes. It gives so much rest listening to you and I learn from you!!!

[@bernicescanlon6137]

Thank you Phil for this wonderful video John your a gentleman l love watching your videos god bless you and good health to you both 🙏☘💫

[@yangjunhua9469]

The moment we start judging, we are back to our ego separated from the oneness and love. A good reminder to me 😊

[@nickbettterknown]

One of the best ASMR videos ive watched, loved the video and love john , i hope one day we get a full whispered ASRM video 🙏

[@SpiritualUnfoldment]

Thanks Nick - don't hold your breath. The ASMR aspect of John's videos is always unintentional - we wouldn't do a 'whispering on demand' video. Phil

[@bobbyrawk]

I would love to hear John in his own podcast series. Would be an instant hit if he and Phill would launch their own channel. 👌🏼

[@dterm8526]

That is a great idea 💡

[@James.1_2-3]

Thank you John for talking about Jesus. It means a lot to me. If someone tell this to John. It would mean the world to me.

[@SpiritualUnfoldment]

Hi BBB - John reads all the Comments although he does not often reply these days. Phil

[@James.1_2-3]

@@SpiritualUnfoldment thank you!

[@BecomeConsciousNow]

Very good. Presence, stillness, peace, spaciousness, pure consciousness, love and the one "I am" all seem very close to me but still very much out of reach. I guess the more I practice meditation - feet on the ground, look and listen and being still and quiet - the closer I will get to the presence of God. Thanks for another good video and reminding me that we are all immortal beings.

[@jlhpi568]

All that God is , Is always in your Presence, one's thoughts alone are all of This Holy Presence, because your will, to be in such God- ness shall allow you to be the same. Blessings to you Ryan, and may Grace open your knowing to this fact.

[@fr0z3nshark77]

Loving the videos as always

[@mreverstrucked23]

Thanks I enjoy listening to your aspects of life and everything!

[@quinnthadiva]

John Butler's videos are so Comforting and calm🌟🍂🥀.... it's 9am yet his voice got me drowsy!😂

[@glisteningwaters3312]

I love being in the silence and stillness of holiness. It is an experience of unconditional love. In my experience, I had the honor of kissing Christ golden feet. There are no earthly words to describe what that encounter is like. One would need to experience it for themselves to feel and know the essence of being in the majestic presence of holiness. It is dazzling beyond imagination!🙏

[@hightower6546]

Also at 7:00. Many of these videos have way too much ear-shattering pitch changes.

No God.....no peace. Know God......know peace.

[@svonkie]

Deep meditation over many years uncovers the great wisdom of the collective subconscious. John Butler, Thich Nhat Hanh, and Ajhan Brham all meditated for many decades, and all reflect the same basic universal truths about life and love. It isn’t religion. It isn’t thought. It is meditation that makes the difference, it seems.

[@gavinspeaks]

Just for 24 hours, try total acceptance. Whatever happens, accept it. Someone insults you, accept it, don’t react, and see what happens. Suddenly you will feel energy flowing in you, that you have not felt before. Much Love from a Law Of Attraction KZbinr 💜

[@ArnoLouwagie]

I usually don't comment under other people's videos but this comment piqued my interest. Sounds like a good way to stay calm and stay in control of this chaos called life. Will do this tomorrow and see how it goes... Much love from a Belgian tech KZbinr here!

Hey John, can you make a video on break ups and failed relationships

[@Gibsonthecat]

Phil, please make with John video about war and peace. I am from Russia and I am suffering so much because of what my country doing right now. Why is that happening. I don't want it. I don't support it. That's can not be.

Here i am, in a drunken stooper i tried to use a belt to strangle myself over silly job bullshit, like a job is more important than a human life gimme a break. i was lucky bc my family was there for me, however ... We must live life no matter what, death isnt the answer dam it. Believe in a higher purpose for yourself, its never as bad as you make it. You ultimately make the choice, you do have the power to change, you do have the power to decide, your life is in fact in your own hands. Please choose life over death, death is our enemy and we must connect and work together to keep death at bay otherwise, we are all dead.

[@lilibombin6667]

John looks younger in each video

[@AttyDouro22]

Helps when the videos 3 years old

[@James.1_2-3]

John can you tell mother Russia to stop attacking Ukraine? 😢

[@TheSoteriologist]

Did I hear the first five minutes right, that, after all this personality cult grafted onto him by his surrounds, he starts comparing himself to Jesus via the feet washing ?

[@robertsavage7599]

John seems like a gentle soul, but he absolutely has no clue about many of the things he talks about. It is spiritually dangerous to use him as a mentor. Even his perception of 'I AM' is completely contradictory to what scripture tells us it is. So I use these videos only to fall asleep, as his voice is so soothing. It would be perfect ASMR if it weren't for changes in pitch due to laughing and other things.

[@louiseharrison8444]

He's not comparing himself to Jesus. He uses the act carried out by Jesus to express the great swell of love he felt for his fellow human beings. And, with that, the desire to be a servant.

[@TheSoteriologist]

@@louiseharrison8444 Yeah, that's how I heard it, too, but you'll admit it's getting dangerously close. For instance, Jesus' feet washing went far beyond being a spontaneous expression of love and humility. It was also consciously a deeply symbolic act. In fact, it was an initiatic introduction and exhortation to the apostles to follow his example in a way that would be highly questionable for anyone else to arrogate to himself.

[@louiseharrison8444]

@@TheSoteriologist John wasn't arrogating anything to himself. He experienced a state of being which Jesus had advocated for us to follow. He unself-consciously shared that with us. John is human and goes to great lengths not to disguise that fact. His warmth, gentleness, and humility and spiritual understanding, are a result of the thousands of hours he's spent in meditation. John is one of the holiest persons alive, I'd venture. Yes, in virtue of being a limited human being, he suffers from the sin of Adam...the human ego.. But much, much less than you or I.

[@TheSoteriologist]

@@louiseharrison8444 Quite obviously you have problems understanding what you read. The subjunctive, particularly, seems to escape your intellectual limitations ;)

[@Don27041970]

There's a day coming, John where God will "Shake terribly the Earth" Feet on the ground??

[@Huskerguy316]

I like to listen to to John to fall asleep but he utterly butchers the meaning of scripture to the point of blasphemy. He equates himself with God the Father and adopts I AM for himself which is about as antichrist as you can get. He’s going to hell based on what I’ve heard him say about God and Jesus.

[@ReadyDaddy]

lol ask john about andrew tate 😄
