This Greater Truth

[@tiadiad]

Love you so much, mr. Butler, never stop healing us.

[@neekoko187]

I came here to meditate but somehow my subconscious managed to get a degree in philosophy . Thank you for your wisdom, Sir Butler!

[@divinity4infinity266]

I don’t know if you’ll have time to manage getting around reading all of your comments, but if you do happen to read this... I want to say thank you. Thank YOU, John Butler. You’ll say it’s not all about you of course, and that’s true in a way, but I speak truthfully when I say if it weren’t for you, it might’ve taken me another three decades to finally have peace of mind. Not that fake illusion of peace we fool ourselves into believing so often, but real peace. I have struggled with depression and suicidal thoughts for my entire adult life, but for the first time I’m feeling that darkness being left far behind me along with all those worrisome questions. 😭😭😭 Thank you.

[@iamradical]

How did you get peace of mind? I have also had to put up with depression for the last 15-20 years and I’m just a blank canvass, an empty vessel I guess.

[@divinity4infinity266]

It’s been a very long process. I think the peace in my mind started growing when I stopped asking the questions that no one had answers to. I stopped trying to control things, including my own anxiety and depression. I just stopped trying to fix everything. It’s not something that happened right away, and I’m still a work in progress but I find my mind is less of a danger to me when I work with it, instead of against. Acceptance of the here & now, I believe is how we start to ease our minds. Sorry if that’s a bit incoherent or confusing! It’s rather difficult to put into words, just the nature of it, and I think it’s a bit different for all of us, we will each have our own experience when we start meditating and looking for a higher consciousness to connect with. I wish you the very best!

[@glassman8697]

ManicPixieNerd Jesus is the true peace. THE Truth The Life. He loves us and gives us peace if we accept Him

[@glassman8697]

iamradical following Jesus is what gives complete peace. He is the only one who can provide this

[@glassman8697]

All we have to do is follow Him in His footsteps

[@lightgrey5365]

this made me cry for some reason. must be the warmth that emanates from him. the sensation that he's not just talking, but he *_is_* what he's talking about.

[@mmmfun77]

This man has more patience then Job. Personally I’m not so patient. I would say the need for answers only leads to more questions which result in YOU NOT BEING PRESENT! Sit down, zip your mouth, close your eyes or don’t and just listen! 🤣 This practice PHYSICALLY changes your brain. Both hemispheres of the brain come together as a team rather than adversaries . Your brain shifts into higher frequencies . As you make more quantum space by this discipline, you inevitably make more room for greater things to come. I wish I could express how profound the changes that have occurred since I , personally, chose to finally quiet my mind. Worth the effort. JUST DO IT!👍 ♥️♥️

[@benlauson555]

I've read Jobs account - how on earth could you compare this guy to what happened to him? Makes no sense, maybe it's just an expression. If so its not a very good one. Either way - so what and have a great day.

[@myrtleesther8855]

This was the best rest I have had for a while , deep peace as I have fixed my mind on Jesus and listened to your soothing voice.......And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7 KJV

[@imbewitchingyou]

Those people walking by him have no idea what a treasure they were passing ❤️

[@TheOceanBearer]

Maybe they did, but they didn't wanna interrupt him out of respect. Maybe they were all bowing at his feet, suckling. Maybe they were waiting in line waiting for an autograph.

[@TheOceanBearer]

"Don't look for results," is good advice for meditation, I can attest to this.

[@Youbarkimeow]

You make me feel like being me is not so weird after all being misunderstood all my life and finally came to a point of not worrying why others view me as such. Even though I'm always alone I never feel alone specially in the woods it's my favorite place to be it's medicine to me, thank you for sharing your wisdom and life with us all 🐱🔭

[@TaxemicFanatic]

Who is the "me" that feels weird?

[@Youbarkimeow]

@@TaxemicFanatic I don't actually feel weird I'm just different from most but I've been labelled weird, maybe I worded it wrong.

[@TaxemicFanatic]

@@Youbarkimeow you may have read my question wrong too. I did not ask the question "do you really feel weird" or "why do you feel weird", but by who do you refer when you say "I'm different"? You mention the word "I" several times, relating it directly to a feeling. Go deeply into this I and nature of it. Can the I of infinite, irreducible awareness really feel alone?

[@robertm.-certifieddaytrade4939]

TaxemicFanatic Very profound! And I agree. The “I” that is who we truly are is god-like and can not be lacking anything, anymore than God himself can!

[@Youbarkimeow]

@@TaxemicFanatic I understand your question thank you for clarifying it for me but me mentioning I'm is just me referring to myself, I don't feel alone and choose to actually be by myself I don't particularly fine too much human company very comforting to me I much rather prefer the company of animals. However with that said it's the only time I've been without an animal so in that sense I am lonely only from not having an animal's company.

[@jumbo4billion]

Morning gents, hope the day fineds you well

[@dannysze8183]

I can't describe how much I love john. I feel jesus in him.🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@MysticSoulHealth]

Incredible PEACE you bring to my Soul. You are Pure Love John and it permeates through all these electronic devices and reaches us. We all LOVE YOU. YOU are our BLESSING. God Bless You💝

[@miikobelle]

This relaxes me on so many levels 🤤

[@atho_s]

Please don’t get frustrated or jaded because of all of the questions Mr. Butler. I’m not good at meditating or ‘being present’, but your videos are a source of comfort for me anyway. You seem to genuinely care about the world and about people. Believe me there are thousands of people like me who watch/listen to these videos just to hear a comforting message from a familiar voice, and not necessarily because they have specific questions they need answered. Please make these videos for as long as you can stand to.

[@77patan]

I'm from México and these videos make my days full of reflection and meditation✨god bless you✨

[@jamielee5695]

Thank you for your wonderful guidance in such strange times John!

[@shaunalynn7496]

I was meditating and calling to my higher self the other day and this thought came into my mind, clear as day: we are not here to explain, we are here to experience. We do not need to question, we only need to exist.

[@merdab8]

You're not wrong. I feel like we're the sentient ones on earth, a higher power, the universe might not even know we're here. But here we are, like tendrils feeling our way through our surroundings. Some of the universe's thinking and feeling parts......oh boy lol.

[@whitecrane9433]

I am going to keep this in my pocket, thank you for sharing 🌼

[@perceptiveprof]

John soothes my soul with his voice, like when I was young, and was comforted by listening to the narrator of Winnie the Pooh.

[@starwolven]

This is a precious seed 🌱 and I will assist in spreading it, as shall many others who understand the message. Our thoughts and intentions (questions) manifest our reality. Returning to stillness is important for humanity as a whole; Billions are struggling with oppression fear and anxiety - as a result our world is out of balance. Thank you for this wisdom revered teacher

[@need2know739]

Agreed, the rat-race will do that. And to be reasonable requires one to reason(wrestle) with there Demons and in the process discover ourselves and see things for what they are...generally for NOT, yet still vital for growth to overcome. Friend, GOD is the creator of ALL, both Good and So called Bad. But in Reality there is niether because one is merely the seperation of the other and merely a correction of itself. ONLY GOD is GoOD and therefore we are merely subjects to it(nature)... Be Blessed

[@ellisonhamilton3322]

That is certainly a beautiful spot. Looks like a restful place for the mind. I'm trying to find time every day to take myself away somewhere peaceful and NOT think about anything. There is so much negative happening in my country right now and people are really wound up tight and angry. So I need to seperate from it and find some peace. Thanks for these moments of healing. Peace to you both.

[@igordomanski3477]

Great to see this gentleman in nature, still and present

[@tomekgorniak]

God bless you until another day.

[@dylanknight3624]

God bless you as well, Dear John.

[@jaykoehn4106]

Dear John thank you for sharing your wisdom again I love to listen to your videos for morning devotions while sitting outside listening to the birds singing in the trees what a blessing to be able to rest in the arms of Jesus

[@ElderlyFacePunch]

You're a Shepherd, John, thank you for showing us the way. ❤️ You're helping me return to a healthier mind. I will keep you posted 😁

[@salligriffin2847]

I am so blessed to have found you . I am still in your prescence Xx

[@liliannapaxton]

John you are my Blue Butterfly today !!! Beautiful in every way !!!! Sweet nectar has been shared once again ... Much Love John and Phil 🦋

[@rainingwords5775]

Thank you so much grandpa John hugs n love 💞 and God Bless You too always 🙏

[@sebastienbrunois1728]

Thank you so much John Butler ! Gob bless you. Until another day...

[@peters2240]

John I watch and listen your videos literally everyday. I have been watching them since the interview on Conscious TV. Your wisdom, life experiences, failures, successes and humility have greatly inspired me. I know you know how many people you have touched and inspired but I just wanted to let you know I’m one of them. And Phil, I love your questions, interpretations and perspective. Thanks to you both so much

[@CHRISTIVN.OFFICIAL]

I can relate 100%. I’m young and this wisdom will have me ahead in life.

[@IAm-ur9cq]

STILLNESS answers all questions. Be Still.

[@uwantknowledgenigga1805]

Thank you for this knowledge

[@pawlakar]

Thank you 😌💓💐💐💐💐

[@mariannee9025]

God bless you dear John, Sir, and thank you .. Life is between the silence and the voices, the input from outer world, yet the Silence and Light are always there.. you see: still words want to express what cannot and need not be expressed.. Breath .. breathing in and out.. like Earth breathes, and Sky .. Water is silent again, your video was beautiful quiet “little rock” thrown into pond “being” 🙏 ☘️ Again: thank you, God bless you

[@markusmeyer6391]

I love you so much, eyes tearing

[@milaradisic8839]

beautiful...beautiful dear John...each word...one day this will teach in school... thank you John

[@robertm.-certifieddaytrade4939]

I wish Phil would produce a thumbnail hard-drive with some of the BEST of John’s videos; call it “ THE WISDOM COLLECTION” Perhaps a sales price of $19.95 Some of the videos would show John’s effective meditation technique! I would certainly PURCHASE IT and I suspect others would as well... I would buy several for the holidays and give them to people I know that need some PEACE in their lives! What an AWESOME gift to give! I pray that Phil and John see the GREAT VALUE in such a product and get inspired to move forward with it! GOD continue to BLESS YOU GENTLEMEN.

[@mrchips96]

I have been aware of this Presence for as long as I can remember but have not always appreciated it! It has taken me most of a lifetime to realize that this is the only thing that matters! You are an inspiration to me and I hope that I can abide in this silent presence as you obviously do for the reminder of my days! Thank you 🙏🏻 and God bless you too! ❤️

[@thotusmaximus971]

Please keep making these... If something happens rendering you incapable... It's alright, but as long as it's not a bother to you, please keep making them, they are very useful especially during a time like this where I feel lost...

[@gdavid4509]

Brilliant Green. You always find the best locations to give your message. I hope to see you back in the Church when the weather grows harsh. Love you

[@hightower6546]

Thank you, John.

You see the love in his eyes. I think he's one of UK's finest gurus. Just stop asking questions 😛

[@jrlakin370]

Makes sense to me! 😂👍😁

[@onenessseeker5683]

At the worse time of my life I ran into the deep woods for comfort.... So I ran off into the ever lasting loving arms without even knowing it

[@woodgie1806]

I hope you are ok John, you've seemed a bit flat in the last view videos, I hope the dark isn't creeping back. Bless you for your wisdom.

[@faboolean7039]

I wonder what John thinks about extra terrestrial life

[@jesusismylord1496]

John can you make a audio book in the future I love your content

[@TanjaVuPoems]

Dear John, can we have the pocket edition of you, so that we can always keep you (and this sacred stillness you are immersed in) close wherever we go!?☺️💞

[@khalilumoja2999]

This guy is truly an Ent from Lord of the rings. I accept your widom but youre not fooling us 😉

[@iamradical]

This just depresses me. This guy seems like he just loves life and has so much wisdom. Meanwhile I’m just a depressed idiot.

[@Just_the_Wind]

Don't feel that way about yourself, man.

[@purplepoet6147]

Interestingly enough, Mr Butler here has struggled with depression himself! (If I remember correctly) You'll make it, my dude. Wisdom comes from experience. God bless ya

[@jellointhewind8712]

He seems like a lot of things he isnt.

[@randybackgammon890]

Something magical happens when John pauses and the wind blows through the trees behind him.His silence the gateway to so much.But I can't fully agree with his pre renaissance view of worldly existence as some kind of vain shipwreck to be abandoned a.s.a.p. The transient is,in my opinion, as eternal as the divine.A work in progress of which we all have some responsibility.

Hey Mr. Butler, I love your videos and I have a question. I am 19 years old and my country, Armenia, is being attacked right now by Azerbaijan. How can I stay calm and be present in the situation of war? I am genuinely scared for my family’s life and safety. Thank you. ❤️

[@need2know739]

[@OceanWinds108]

So are you constantly directing your mind to something still or are you in contact with the all permeating stillness?

[@lonelytraveller7629]

John, I've always have had difficulty sticking with my commitments. Do you have any advice on how to stay motivated when it comes to "staying the course"? I always seem to fall off and give up when times are hard. You're wisdom and experiences have inspired me to live a greater and more meaningful life.. thank you

[@kensantiago8729]

Hello John...my only connection to God is nature...I also love art but nature is arts inspiration.

[@crashdavis721]

John I love your videos and I watch whenever you bring a new one out, but something really worries me. If you keep hitching your strides up too high, I'm scared that you'll end up making high pitched videos instead of that lovely calming voice.

[@EsmagaSapos]

we're creatures that seek meaning in a environment that simply *is* when we're born we don't name or label- we're simply aware and curious once we learn names, we associate- and all the things become the same: a tree becomes like all the trees because it have the same name, foolish! humans can't understand the world- be aware, be curious like you once were not just of the environment, be aware of the thoughts: _here it comes, here it goes_ once you become aware of thoughts, your brain becomes naturally attentive once you become attentive inwards, you become attentive outwards the brain becomes full of life, you can be aware of everything inside and outside this doesn't come true a technique you're told, no one can teach you- it's in you to have a quiet brain you must have a brain that is totally aware, totally awaken what john's is telling is that humans can't see things using words / questions

[@jag8901]

Stillness .....we people are like stones that create a ripple on a normally calm pond ! We disturb the calmness of nature (stillness) , just me guessing

[@vanbaz4440]

I ask John Butler to cite his words, some of them are mine.
