John, you’re an absolute delight. I love your videos so much. And Phil, thank you for producing these videos. If I lived closer, I’d come to one of your retreats. Stay well! Cheers from Canada!
Hey John. I was out jogging the other day and decided to stop on a field near a woody area near me. I live in Manchester so there's not much nature around but there's a nice spot nearby. I sat on the field and I felt this total silence and peace starting to grow. I panicked because I felt like it was going to swallow me up. When I got home I was annoyed that I'd let fear ruin the peace I felt so I asked a mate if he wanted to go camping. He said he was up for it so we went cos I thought I must be really disconnected from nature if silence scared me. Anyway we went to the lakes and camped on Saturday night. The first thing I noticed when I was on the Old Man Of Coniston was the silence. Never heard anything like it in my life. I embraced it this time though and then the entire night I didn't even want to play music or even speak because I was so amazed by the weight of the silence I felt. Never heard anything like it before. I went from being scared of it, to making myself get back out in it and it turned out to be the thing I loved most out of the entire trip. The absolute silence on the mountains. Never really understood what you meant when you always stopped and listened to the silence but out in nature silence has such a different quality to regular everyday life in rural areas. I love it now can't wait to get back out and camp again.
John I so love that quotation!!And indeed..it is where I have found rest! Abide in Me. .He says... and there we are at peace....the everlasting arms have a safety and a security unknown to the busy world of commerce and competition! And you longed to love and be loved.....yes, and like us all looked everywhere. Not finding it....and when you stopped looking. ..Love found you, so that now you live in that presence!!! Thank you John for sharing this..richness beyond price! We unite There...forever!
You remind me of an apostle, an example of man impersonating God. At 46 I have found this channel at the right place in my mind set. More than half of what you have said I have found on my own after a lifetime of chaos. As I am fatherless you set a good charter going forward, echoing things I heard from Great Aunts and distant cousins. I wonder how you reconcile the chaos in the past, mine seemed always keeping to character. As much as some of my 20s and 30 were a waste of time, I'm not resentful of them, as they were attempts. I think of life no longer as playing basketball- keeping a score against an opponent but as golf keeping score against my own satisfaction, which means there isn't a score any longer. When I use feet on the ground, becoming aware that my interpretation of stimulus often defines who I am- I am no longer at odds with the chaos that will surely follow because I know where to put it. I accumulate worth elsewhere.
Ps so love how John mentions his mother an her life tasks an to. think he Can get out all the Story Of what is important , his history onnhis Father , their ethics . Amen 🙏 Mary Canada 🇨🇦
Kind words, advise, guidance and examples in his life on earth. When you listen to him you can also perceive much love for others with his teaching. I love the term spiritual riches.
mesmerized by his voice we forget or accept the fact that the MINDFULNESS is the new toy for a society allowing anything except solutions and rational thinking. If your life it's not what you wanted it's because we never came to life WITH AN EXACT AIM. What you do is what gives your life a meaning.
Mindfulness is good but you are right: often it is misleading weak persons to go on with their irrational behaviour. For example people with money problems or compulsive behaviour like watching to much porn etc. are stuck in this behaviour and think mindfulness will do it. Mindfulness alone does not do anything with your money problem for example. Be rational and get free of compulsive behaviour. Real Mindfulness is really good but nevertheless you have to get your finances, your Job and your family in order.
This is a really good talk, I really enjoyed this one. Nice asmr & like the new intro piano :) that's beautiful that you still have jumpers your mother made you. You're really right what you say about machines. it's never been more clear than today.
I could not agree more, consumerism, some do not look after belongings, they just have the mentality oh well we buy another. PS Im 46 maybe I am old fashioned. I feel we are actually devolving as opposed to evolving. With each generation worse than the last, but maybe ppl are starting to realise, maybe its too late.
I know this is very definition of sacrilegious if there is any such thing at all but John looks SO MUCH like a 20+ level D&D Wizard. Hahahaha I love him so much
Hi John me and my girlfriend are coming to bake well tomorrow (02.05.21) hoping to see you after watching all your videos. Thanks for your time - Ayrton
@@AyrtoHD Hi - look out for John on his trike! If you can email me on phil@spiritualunfoldment.co.uk quickly and maybe I can arrange to meet you with John at about 3pm for a short time. Phil
I’m a fairly “mainline” Christian. At surface level we would certainly agree on very little. But I appreciate the peace in your countenance. Thanks for your videos and your kind spirit.
It would be wonderful to have another brief video on meditation, I know there is one as part of a longer talk, but I would really value one I can use everyday.
27:20 - 27:45 During this _"Reign of Quantity"_ as René Guénon called it, there are many, many men, especially, who, due to the fact that the primitive forms of sex are not liveable in a healthy traditional sense during the proper age _(that is directly after the onset of puberty until, say, 20)_ , get psychologically stuck there and the obsession with sex lingers far, far beyond that period, resulting in a prolonged, even lifelong emotional adolescence. No sexual relationship _after_ that time _(from 20 onwards)_ can properly compensate for what nature has intended to be the _orderly and regularly_ sexually active "teenage years" _(which had never existed in all of human history until that period was invented only decades ago)_ which would be exactly what would allow a man to _feel_ adult once he is in his 20s and so drop his mental preoccupation with sex. JB is lucky to have been able to "catch up" his maturation later through the wisdom he received, but not all men are able to let go of what they missed out on when young. My own style of catching up was considerably more raunchy, less wholesome, but otherwise rather similar to his.
Thank you, @John have you ever been at complete stillness and rest? It is my belief that when you are in this state that you are the closest that you can be. I have gleaned this from a couple of reputable sources. When energy at rest meets energy in motion this creates consciousnesses which creates all that we see. The energy at rest is God/Creator/Source. I hypothesize that when we are perfectly still and at a deep rest that at that time that is as close as we can get to the Creator. If you do this with a large group of people the effects are multiplied. Would you please contact me if this blends with you
Does anyone know what was the name (or lineage) of the school of meditation John attended? He often refers to it and it seemed to have been a solid teaching
Good morning John - we hope to be able to offer retreats again starting in June. You can register your interest in the form on the retreat page of the website. Phil
This bloke is renowned for his ASMR type of voice. With respect, other than that, his philosophy is his own but somewhat obscure and disjointed. Stop asking “Isn’t it?” Looking for affirmation. Read a book with your guttural utterances to send some folk to sleep without waffling obscure philosophies.......
Hello! Mr. John Butler, Your teachings are very inspiring and has helped start a fire in me to want to write a story and hopefully have it published. I am very interested in becoming an author some day, however I am curious how I can go about it? Without paying through a vanity corporation. How would you go about it?
Just a heads up to give you all sneak peak at the new acknowledgements page for the new edition of a book I've written, The Memory Tapes of John I. Pearl: Acknowledgements: The Alpha and Omega of the series. Without whoms… Jack and Roberta and all the Chromey Clan for continued friendship and a wholesome service to the One. Chromey Creative, may it sail on and on. For friends and family, near and far. The wild blue yonder awaits our seafaring souls. Love, Be our Guide. I’ve placed all previous acknowledgements at the end of this book-so you can all deservedly receive the last word…a thousand thanks. A newcomer to the party, though his beard and genial face and voice certainly says otherwise. To John Butler and all within the effort known as Spiritual Unfoldment: this work was written some time before I had ever heard you speak. Thank you, John, for articulating as fully and clearly as you do the challenges and rewards of Search, the true purpose for our being here. And a hearty thanks to the man behind the scenes-maybe every great band has its gifted timekeepers. So thank you, Phil for helping that beat go on and on. Peace and Blessings, Always. ~ James PS...I'll be happy to send you a copy of the books. All the best. j~

Dear John, you never fail to inspire. Thank you, thank you
Listening to this provides me with rest. Thank you John and Phil. These impromtus are so rewarding.
With INFINITE LOVE for you Dearest John. Forever my Lighthouse.
One of the most beautiful video’s!! Rest, rest and live from rest, A journey to learn! Greetings from Maria from Holland
It’s So fascinating to hear the non-dual understanding through a Christian viewpoint.
Yes - it was this understanding that I discovered in his first book “wonders of spiritual unfoldment” that drew me to John and to Bakewell. Phil
@@SpiritualUnfoldment to the benefit of us all.
What exactly does that mean?
Dearest John,
I really enjoyed the talk, Thank You. 😀
Thank you Restful John, The "Gentle and humble" nature of Jesus attracts me to be yoked with Him.

a true man of Christ doesn't need to give lip service about being so and you, sir, are a shining example of that. I sincerely thank you🙏
I’m so grateful for you John Butler
The way he talks ab his mother. So so sweet.
Thank you for another very needed lesson. Big love from germany. ❤
John absolutely resonates a beautiful spirit!
All people should aspire to become like you John God bless you always xx

Keeping you in Prayers of Light and Protection. Abundant Blessings of Strong Health for you!!!!!
you are held in the loving arms of the Almighty x
Thank you, John.
I believe John and the way he speaks to us is like unto Christ Jesus speaking to us in the still quiet voice my peace he said I leave unto you
I watched it, loved it, such a shame nobody listen to you, the world would be a better place if they all listen to you.
John is a superhero we need, but dont deserve
Your family supported you financially..Which is all very nice. you're so humble John.
God bless you sir. You are an amazing human being.
God bless you John
I can't believe I only pay 10 pounds a month for my data. Best thing on the internet. So much love for this man :) Cheers from Spain!!
I love ❤️ his tricycle - I want one like this
John and Phil are the best people ever 🙂
Thank you
Still my go to unintentional asmr videos. John always delivering the best advice
Glad you think so. Maybe we don't do enough to promote John to ASMR 'tinglers'. Phil
I'm a Buddhist but I sure do love Jesus 🥰 love you John!

“New toy”? That’s funny. The Buddha would be amused.

How divine it is to listen to you John x love Helen ❤
Thanks, John and Phil.
Great work Phil and John! Cant wait for more amazing talks! These videos got me into meditation and i cant wait for more! Thank you both!
Thank you mr Butler
Wonderful
John, we love you. Do a live Q&A with us!
Thank you for your guidance :)
God is truly in the details. Love this video....
I find it oddly relaxing that when John talks it sounds like a bowl of Rice Crispies after you just pour the milk in (snap, crackle, pop).
Love your videos john
Nothing like rest.
God be with you John, you changed my life

Needs a longer beard and a pointier hat
Sorcerer, a divine soul maybe ^^ not too fond of wizards intelligence but rather leans on intuition magic

whatever comes, let it come... whatever goes, let it go... what is it that you should be afraid of in the eyes of your Lord?
