I used to watch these videos for his voice but as I actually started to listen to his words, rather than the voice, especially when he mentions a “time of torment” as I can relate to it. Many thanks for these talks. It makes me comfortable knowing I’m not the only one going through troubling times.
When I started watching your videos, I watched to hear your wisdom, but I’ve since been trying to understand what it means. Having gone through depersonalization and derealization in the recent months, I now understand COMPLETELY what you mean. What before seemed like some hidden wisdom I would only learn when I’m old, now feels like a complete cure to my wrestless mind. I can’t thank you enough
Thank you you bringing back the stillness, peace, and true essence of what reality is. We get so caught up in the trivialities of the phenomenal world that we loose touch with the eternal divinity within us all. You are a god send blessing John. Your words, presence, humility, and essence give people a glimmer of hope...Thank you again for sharing your thoughts on RUclips. You are touching more people than you could ever imagine!
Awesome theme to speak on, we live in a confusing world and most of the time we need to literally and mentally take our shoes off and fell the Earth beneath out feet, nature surrounding us and just be still for a moment! Love you two xoxoxoxox
People wonder why they feel so de-stressed when they take their shoes and socks off for a walk in the beach and feel the sand between their toes. Apparently there are different charges between Body and Earth, was reading it is good for us to feel the earth with our feet and can even have health benefits. But yes I agree with everything you are sayin. It's funny because I happened to see your channel about 20 minutes before seeing your comment on this video. Ha. X
What a fabulous talk. These teachings are so precious for me. To hear somebody speaking who has such a wide perspective is invaluable. Thank you. Keep up the good work.
I could sit and listen to John for long and happily hear all he would choose to tell me as I can think of much to ask him. What a most refreshing character and also very soothing. 🙏🕉
Your videos allow me a slice of peace and perspective thank you both so much. John's answers were particularly lucid and insightful in this video. Thanks
I'd love to see videos of John being out in nature, like walking through the woods and interacting with animals. Or just playing with a dog indoors while talking to it.
After 2 days of listening to John's talks, I already feel calmer and more patient. I loathe traffic, and get bent out of shape in traffic, and start to cuss. But today I felt more peaceful, and not so hurried. I thought of what's important vs. what's not.
Thanks you for inspiring me to write this truth John : As a kid, Danny loved climbing onto roof tops. Other kids from the neighborhood would come and cheer. ''Look!’ 'they’d say, ''It’s Danny! He’s on the rooftop!''. One day, Danny fell and broke his leg. The other kids stopped coming 🙁. Still, Danny kept trying to climb onto rooftops. After years of climbing and falling and climbing and falling again, little Danny finally realized that it was best to just keep his feet on the ground. After all, that is where God is 😊.
ohh john you dont know how happy it felt in my heart when I listened to your voice after several months...like being at home...lots of love!!! And I equally love the interviewer who carefully asks the questions as though he does not know the answers... love to both of you!!!
Honestly dont know if anyone will see this, but John you have made me so much more at peace with the things around me these past few months since I have found this channel, whether my situation or my circumstances, and I want to thank you for that. You are special man and i thank you for showing me that at my young age, all that is needed to deal with the world as it is today is to just slow down, focus on whats around you that is good, and dont worry about the things out of my control.
So many people seem to have come to this channel for ASMR (still not sure what that stands for) but I came to it through the 'buddha at the gas pump' channel, which is a channel for spiritual talks and after years of listening to Eckhart Tolle, Mooji etc. I feel people who are just here for ASMR are really missing out. Although the other spiritual speakers seem less religious this guy is still saying the same thing as they are. Very good stuff here if one really listens and practices what is being spoken. Namaste 🙏☮️
John, your depth and authenticity shine throughout all of these videos. So grateful that you decided to make them and share your living insight with us. Interestingly, I thought i may ask a mystical question, but I would love you to speak about the atmosphere of the old cow shed. What was it like? What effect did it have on the farmer? On the cows? What have we lost of the heart of connectedness and kindness with industrial agriculture? Much love to you.
Hi Louise. Today John showed me his press clippings from the 70's when he was a 'celeb' organic farmer - way ahead of his time. They are fascinating - you would love them. Phil
Can you please ask John the following question? I understand from my own experience that resisting negative emotions or mental states such as fear, anger , self-doubt, resentment doesn’t work. How can we embrace /love/forgive these negative aspects in a PRACTICAL way? THANK YOU for posting these wonderful talks. Blessings!!
By observing them, as if they don't belong to you. Or as Eckhart Tolle says, by not identifying with them. They're not who you truly are nor do they belong to you. They're a culmination lifetimes of suffering. If you're not able to simply let them be, nor to detach from them, or they're so deeply ingrained, I'd suggest getting healing or simply asking for healing. One simple way is asking a spiritual master you deeply trust, such as Jesus Christ. They use this prayer in Spring Forest Qiqong healing: Dear God, dear Heaven, dear Universe, dear Master, please send the healing power of your love to completely heal my mind, my body, my soul. Thank you Amen Namaste 🙏
If we didn’t think, we wouldn’t be unhappy, and thought is just an illusion. Become present, break the illusion and peace will be waiting behind the illusion. This works because the mind is based in an illusory past and future and it takes you outside of the only true reality which is all around you in every ongoing present moment.
Secret of meditation is awareness without though,When you get in this state you’re able to realize you are not alone then you can here the crickets the birds chirping it will all be natural not from your mind made self
I love these videos. I'm always intrigued by John's answers to each question, and I enjoy his spirituality and relaxed nature. No doubt that's one of the reasons why the ASMR community is embracing him. I also enjoy the Bakewell church as the standard venue, though for a church it does tend to get a bit noisy at times. Even Phil joked about moving the furniture at the onset of the video. And then there was what sounded like some sort of alarm that started going off at 1:51 and I believe continued for the duration. May that have been John's car alarm?
There's a method advised to me by a wise shaman, she said put your feet on the ground & like a tree, imagine roots going deep into earth, anchoring you. It's not as easy as it sounds. I can do it once or twice but then can't for some reason. It's good to feel like a tree though, you're anchored & the wind (life & it's problems), may push your leaves & branches around but you're rooted in earth. PS. You can even do this from 10th floor, doesn't have to be on ground. It's mentally healing
Thanks Red Leaf. I too find the tree with roots analogy helpful - I include it in my walking meditations (although I haven't seen trees walk). I recently learned that trees communicate vis their roots. See ruclips.net/video/1djibBPOfto/видео.html Phil
Feet on the ground, listen and look See the beauty in the world, in every nook Embraced by a loving, divine presence Find stillness and let go of your pretense Like fish in the sea, swimming free We too are a part of this grand tapestry But too often we're lost in our own mind Blinded to the love that's all around, confined So come to your senses, feel the embrace Allow yourself to be in this sacred place Find peace and tranquility, let it be your guide And know that you're loved, on every side So take a deep breath, and let it all in And know that you're a part of something greater than sin Feet on the ground, listen and look And you'll find the love that's been there all along, in every nook.
Great video and John is always interesting and informative, I’m always engrossed by him voice, knowledge and life experiences. It such a shame that in the background all you can hear for the first half of the video is that alarm. It spoils the ‘stillness’.
Olivia j sweetheart learn how to meditate loneliness is an allusion it’s of the mind so when you meditate you rest more in awareness in the moment then you notice the kingdom of heaven everything is alive So how can you be lonely you’re letting your Falls selfI lead you down a dark path
Olivia j: When I was young, I was terribly lonely, but as I traveled the spiritual path, as described by John Butler and Eckhart Tolle, I ceased to be lonely. We can be whole within ourselves, with the Divine Presence, and in being whole, not dominated by ego (identity with thought), we can be truly happy in relationship with others. Loneliness suggests that we can't find what we need within oneself, but that isn't true. I think that Don Milo has it right.
You win. Well spotted, Andrew. There is indeed a car alarm going off in the background for nearly the entire video. We arranged it especially to test if anyone would notice. Have you seen the famous experiment where a gorilla walks across the frame and no-one notices? Phil
I'm surprised I can listen to this video and find it absorbing and relaxing _despite_ the alarm going off, such is the remarkable potency of John's voice and manner. That's some talent that man has.
Spiritual Unfoldment Excellent, what do I win? 😅 Please do continue making these videos guys, it’s always great to listen to John’s thoughts, car alarm or not!
I don't understand where he got the idea that most of the people lived in caves in Jesus's lifetime. He himself was a literally a multi-generational carpenter. Hell they had literal freaking cities.
Abandon the Climb and Concede Defeat.. Don't fall for that passive attitude that has pervaded much mainstream spiritual thought.. The Climb towards Self Mastery is your Birthright.. Do the work - find your direction - you'll find your wings - all else will fall into place..
Point was making: In much spiritual thought there is this passive attitude - one of surrender.. Meaning abandon the climb. Consequently many so called spiritual people become weak and lazy - conditioned by this surrender mentality.. The practice of Meditation is something different: In meditation it's necessary to surrender (let go) of the thinking mind in meditation. (Something different)
People, please actually do as he says. Don't be one of those 'new-age', feel-good, idiots who jump around from fuzzy to fuzzy without actually experientally understanding what meditation trully means to consciousness. John is a facet, just as any mystic you may know on the internet, books or personally. You must be your own entheat, your own exegete. Nothing on this current age is more important than experience; profound, inward movement.
Hello Phil great video I love John Aditya from India I have a question can you ask that for me to john Why does the wave again and again forgets that it's the ocean. When the ocean is still it is enjoying the stillness and presence of the spirit but when there is turbulence and waves generated the ocean gets identified with the waves (only for that moment) again after the wave is subsided it sees it is the ever changing ocean but why does the ocean at that moment forgets its nature ? I am sorry but it's a long question but please do ask him as it is I will be very grateful to you thank you
Hello, I have been experiencing problems trying to watch some of your videos. I get a message saying I need to become a member of Feet on the ground or higher. What does this mean and what should I do? Thank you
Hi M1craBoy - most of the 200+ videos on the channel are free to view but with ads. If you prefer ad free videos and to be the 1st to watch new videos you can join the “feet on the ground“ supporters club. Click the “join“ button on the homepage of the channel. Phil
John, you often mention that over 40 years ago you learned to meditate from a "very good school of meditation." But there is no general meditation: there are specific practices. So I would like to know, specifically, what school of meditation was it? Thank you.
Phil can i ask were did you meet john? And also i find your voice just as nice as johns have you ever done a reversal when john asks you questions? All my love from Amy in Liverpool
Hi Amy (fellow Scouser). I first met John through his book 'Wonders of Spiritual Unfoldment' which I came across 'by accident'. I devoured it. I noticed on his website he lived in Bakewell - only an hour away. So I phoned and visited. After a hug we meditated on the hill overlooking Bakewell and I stayed the night in an abandoned stone shepherds hut and meditated with him again in the morning. After, having coffee by the river, I was reading Elif Shafak's book 'Forty Rules of Love'. One rule was "it only takes a moment to make decision that changes your life." I decided to move to Bakewell. Phil
Hi phil firstly thankyou so much for even replying back to me!! Wow a fellow scouser hey to be honest you dont get many on youtube the ones you do get unfortunately 9 out of 10 times they dont portray us very well but hey were not all like that!! What part of Liverpool are you from? I am from childwall and i still live here in childwall a stones throw away from the m62 literally. That is amazing how you and john met and you have had the honour in meditating with him, myself i am absolutely not religious i am absolutely an atheist and i am very happy with that belief i but equally and this is the big one i am all for of someone believes in god or a particular energy i am 100% behind them if someone wants to go to church and pray fantastic id fight for that for anyone one of my sayings is... (if your not harming anyone go for it, But its not for me and dont force it on me keep it to yourself) thats just my little motto, I follow yours and Johns channel for the relaxation element to it the exact same way i listen to David Attenborough the 3 of your voices are amazing! You should do more talking in the videos also maybe ask each other questions im sure it would be appreciated by your fans! I am not on facebook or twitter anything like that but if you want to email me and we could get a chance to talk i would be absolutely honoured. Well give my love to john and thankyou again for getting back to me but also just thankyou for taking the time trouble and effort in making these videos i really appreciate it from the bottom of my heart all my love Amy from Liverpool xx
I have a question for John. When you woke up, what did you experience? Did you realise that you were the universe experiencing a man rather than a man experiencing the universe? Also have you ever listened to Alan Watts? Lol

I always listen to these at least 5 times. It takes that many to start to sink in. Thanks John and Phil!

Fr John. I’m so glad I’m listening to you...
This is wonderful. I’m so glad to have “stumbled” upon your channel.
Your voice and presence are immensely peaceful, John. 🙏
Wisdom and disconnection from random thoughts takes a lot of meditation and patience this man will help many with spiritual peace
Sweet Hearts and Open Minds. Love you Phil and John. Thank you
What a fabulous talk. These teachings are so precious for me. To hear somebody speaking who has such a wide perspective is invaluable. Thank you. Keep up the good work.
Dear John, thank you for your teachings and your example of a beautiful way to live. I sincerely appreciate you.
These words of reminder are refreshment during a time of relapse into old patterns of thought and confusion. I’m grateful for your videos.
I could sit and listen to John for long and happily hear all he would choose to tell me as I can think of much to ask him. What a most refreshing character and also very soothing. 🙏🕉

Every time I get the notification for a new video it has me feelin good 😂
bop me too
I love you John. I wonder if you know how many lives you are touching positively with your love.
Thank you for interviewing John These talks help me so very much.
ohh john you dont know how happy it felt in my heart when I listened to your voice after several months...like being at home...lots of love!!! And I equally love the interviewer who carefully asks the questions as though he does not know the answers... love to both of you!!!
Ps 8: o Lord how majestic is your name, you have set the glory in the heavens!

I am so grateful for these videos. Thank you for making and sharing them.
Beautiful wise thoughts to ground us .
This man is helping me through some dark times right now.

Rather put off by alarm in the background but his voice is very relaxing
Thank you for another beautiful video. I so very enjoy listening to and appreciate you. Blessings.
It's amazing Phil how quickly your hair has gone from silver to white. You're doing a great job at aging!
I put it down to John's influence. I'm growing a beard next.
Hi forgot to say in another comment but you have really guided me towards Christianity you've tipped me the right way over the fence thank you.
It's been the highlight of our day, thanks....🙏
this is the best video on the internet

"That question touches my heart."
Savage...
2000% savage
The irony of him being so at peace and his words so soothing....whilst a car alarm reverberates in the background.
Perfect, right?
John just reminds me of Merlin, wise pure wizard 🧙♂️
Loving the alarm outside
Can you please ask John the following question? I understand from my own experience that resisting negative emotions or mental states such as fear, anger , self-doubt, resentment doesn’t work. How can we embrace /love/forgive these negative aspects in a PRACTICAL way?
THANK YOU for posting these wonderful talks. Blessings!!

Tuning in for the car alarms
14:40 - The alarm finally stops.
Thanks for this
Thank you.

I'm glad someone can sift through the rambling and mouth noises and actually get something out of it
There is much spirituality in Eastern Christianity. I've always wondered why. Maybe the proximity to Persia and India?
His voice....makes me so relaxed...calm...sleepy......snore....
I do hope how much jon knows how much he is helping people.
There's a method advised to me by a wise shaman, she said put your feet on the ground & like a tree, imagine roots going deep into earth, anchoring you. It's not as easy as it sounds. I can do it once or twice but then can't for some reason. It's good to feel like a tree though, you're anchored & the wind (life & it's problems), may push your leaves & branches around but you're rooted in earth.
PS. You can even do this from 10th floor, doesn't have to be on ground. It's mentally healing
Thanks Red Leaf. I too find the tree with roots analogy helpful - I include it in my walking meditations (although I haven't seen trees walk). I recently learned that trees communicate vis their roots. See ruclips.net/video/1djibBPOfto/видео.html Phil
Feet on the ground, listen and look
See the beauty in the world, in every nook
Embraced by a loving, divine presence
Find stillness and let go of your pretense
Like fish in the sea, swimming free
We too are a part of this grand tapestry
But too often we're lost in our own mind
Blinded to the love that's all around, confined
So come to your senses, feel the embrace
Allow yourself to be in this sacred place
Find peace and tranquility, let it be your guide
And know that you're loved, on every side
So take a deep breath, and let it all in
And know that you're a part of something greater than sin
Feet on the ground, listen and look
And you'll find the love that's been there all along, in every nook.
Great video and John is always interesting and informative, I’m always engrossed by him voice, knowledge and life experiences. It such a shame that in the background all you can hear for the first half of the video is that alarm. It spoils the ‘stillness’.
This is soo true
Jon have you ever felt lonely? If so how did you cope
Olivia j wondered the same
Oh yes, Olivia, terribly. How did I cope? Not very well but, sooner or later, something happens.
Olivia j sweetheart learn how to meditate loneliness is an allusion it’s of the mind so when you meditate you rest more in awareness in the moment then you notice the kingdom of heaven everything is alive So how can you be lonely you’re letting your Falls selfI lead you down a dark path

A good soul.
Man those camera shots are getting weirder every video
Darok Wazo yeah,, why dont shoot a camera angle where we can see both of them at the same time
Darok Wazo I find the discordant shifts of perspective charming.
It's as if John's stillness warps the very light waves that surround him.
Who gives two shits about the camera shots- there not making a motion picture here- you hear them, you see them,.... great, stop complaining
Lol, I thought it was just me
I honestly don't see what any of you are talking about.
Seems to do a lot of talking for someone into stillness?
Can you please do a live stream with John?
Thanks
I came looking for the wow male dwarf "Keep yer feet on da ground""
Themes are very similar to Roger Scruton's' "Clear the air"
John. Do you have other icons that have helped along your path? I appreciate the use of the icon. Thank you. I love this talk. Simple. :)
Please upload a few readings from your books. I'm looking into purchasing, but would like a sample first.
If you go to the website, spiritualunfoldment.co.uk you will find some
@@johnbutler4001
Thank you
I'm not seeing any content in regards to readings from any of your books on the website. Please upload! God bless
I love the video, but I would turn down the interviewer's voice a little bit. The volume difference is annoying to me.
The ground is at peace, unless you're stood on crazy paving.
I read the title with the voice of the dwarfs from world of warcraft.
Is this a Monty python skit? I kept waiting for "no one suspects the Spanish Inquisition!" to bust in from off camera.
Hello John... how does one start to overcome hatred, impatience, and anger?
Abandon the Climb and Concede Defeat.. Don't fall for that passive attitude that has pervaded much mainstream spiritual thought.. The Climb towards Self Mastery is your Birthright.. Do the work - find your direction - you'll find your wings - all else will fall into place..
Mmm ... not sure about that. Climb? Mastery? Work? John often likens the practice of meditation to Surrender. Sounds somewhat different to me. Phil

Consequently many so called spiritual people become weak and lazy - conditioned by this surrender mentality..

I have a question can you ask that for me to john
Why does the wave again and again forgets that it's the ocean.
When the ocean is still it is enjoying the stillness and presence of the spirit but when there is turbulence and waves generated the ocean gets identified with the waves (only for that moment) again after the wave is subsided it sees it is the ever changing ocean but why does the ocean at that moment forgets its nature ?

He looks a bit like he'd been edited onto the background 😂
I doubt any editor would want to work so hard for no reason.
@@arctichare8185 I'm just saying it looks a bit like it, not saying I think it is
Is he on a green screen
John, you often mention that over 40 years ago you learned to meditate from a "very good school of meditation." But there is no general meditation: there are specific practices. So I would like to know, specifically, what school of meditation was it? Thank you.
Phil can i ask were did you meet john? And also i find your voice just as nice as johns have you ever done a reversal when john asks you questions? All my love from Amy in Liverpool
Hi Amy (fellow Scouser). I first met John through his book 'Wonders of Spiritual Unfoldment' which I came across 'by accident'. I devoured it. I noticed on his website he lived in Bakewell - only an hour away. So I phoned and visited. After a hug we meditated on the hill overlooking Bakewell and I stayed the night in an abandoned stone shepherds hut and meditated with him again in the morning. After, having coffee by the river, I was reading Elif Shafak's book 'Forty Rules of Love'. One rule was "it only takes a moment to make decision that changes your life." I decided to move to Bakewell. Phil
Hi phil firstly thankyou so much for even replying back to me!! Wow a fellow scouser hey to be honest you dont get many on youtube the ones you do get unfortunately 9 out of 10 times they dont portray us very well but hey were not all like that!! What part of Liverpool are you from? I am from childwall and i still live here in childwall a stones throw away from the m62 literally.
That is amazing how you and john met and you have had the honour in meditating with him, myself i am absolutely not religious i am absolutely an atheist and i am very happy with that belief i but equally and this is the big one i am all for of someone believes in god or a particular energy i am 100% behind them if someone wants to go to church and pray fantastic id fight for that for anyone one of my sayings is... (if your not harming anyone go for it, But its not for me and dont force it on me keep it to yourself) thats just my little motto, I follow yours and Johns channel for the relaxation element to it the exact same way i listen to David Attenborough the 3 of your voices are amazing! You should do more talking in the videos also maybe ask each other questions im sure it would be appreciated by your fans! I am not on facebook or twitter anything like that but if you want to email me and we could get a chance to talk i would be absolutely honoured. Well give my love to john and thankyou again for getting back to me but also just thankyou for taking the time trouble and effort in making these videos i really appreciate it from the bottom of my heart all my love Amy from Liverpool xx
More please! ❤
John seems a bit unimpressed with the interviewer’s intellectual name-dropping 😆
John is unimpressed with anything that comes only from my mind! Phil

You are truly an inspiring man. Would it be possible to conduct an interview with you?
In what capacity, Tim? Phil
I have a question for John. When you woke up, what did you experience? Did you realise that you were the universe experiencing a man rather than a man experiencing the universe? Also have you ever listened to Alan Watts? Lol
2:53 astronauts don't seem to listen to that advice. 👀
