I came across this as an unintentional ASMR video. I listen to this to help me sleep, but I also greatly enjoy listening to John and his experiences in life. I've always been curious about meditation and its benefits. I would love to meet this man, I feel I could learn a lot about coming to peace with myself and my life.
*John as a child* Mum: “John, I need you to go grab some milk from the shop” John: “Firstly, we must understand that the process of movement is a never ending process. It is a cyclical theme that invariably comes full circle and we simply repeat the steps we once took as a child. We never truly change but rather we replicate our earlier life and we ponder on our life choices to ensure our livelihood is a fruitful one”

How sweet it is to have this consciousness cross my path. Beyond fear,hope,need or loneliness. Wrapped up in the comfortable embrace of my mum's pure affection.
I used to be the kind of person who put a lot of thought into what was 'right' for me. Eventually this thinking made me feel very stifled in life and it affected all aspects of my life in this negative way. I would continuously make the same mistake in thinking that I knew what was best for me without just giving myself the space to just try something out to see if I liked doing it first without any expectation or preconceived notions. It look me a long time to let go of what I thought I knew and just allow myself to live in the present. It was an act of trust. After much struggle, I finally gave up the notion of who I thought I was and became who I am.
Spiritual Unfoldment with John Butler ... funnily phil the whole musical, theatrical venture was inspired by all the things we do not see nor align with anymore ; human beings and their blind spots . It’s the hidden and much that is consigned to an afterthought which brings us true nourishment. Once we get ourselves out of the way. I love these videos phil & you have a wonderful symbiosis in your conversational manner in the way you bounce off john . ( the Coronavirus episode made me smile when john thought you were a bee keeper 😂) magic magic magic x
15:38 - the cherry blossom. I think Richard Feynman captures it better. “I have a friend who's an artist and has sometimes taken a view which I don't agree with very well. He'll hold up a flower and say "look how beautiful it is," and I'll agree. Then he says "I as an artist can see how beautiful this is but you as a scientist take this all apart and it becomes a dull thing," and I think that he's kind of nutty. First of all, the beauty that he sees is available to other people and to me too, I believe. Although I may not be quite as refined aesthetically as he is ... I can appreciate the beauty of a flower. At the same time, I see much more about the flower than he sees. I could imagine the cells in there, the complicated actions inside, which also have a beauty. I mean it's not just beauty at this dimension, at one centimeter; there's also beauty at smaller dimensions, the inner structure, also the processes. The fact that the colors in the flower evolved in order to attract insects to pollinate it is interesting; it means that insects can see the color. It adds a question: does this aesthetic sense also exist in the lower forms? Why is it aesthetic? All kinds of interesting questions which the science knowledge only adds to the excitement, the mystery and the awe of a flower. It only adds. I don't understand how it subtracts.”
Enrico Albrizzi I think his point is that the scientist is capable of doing both. The artist only one. Therefore, contrary to the idea that science strips the world of deeper meaning, it in fact adds meaning. It enriches rather than impoverishes. I think John Butler’s insights are marvellous, but on this point I think he succumbs to romanticism.
The true artist and scientist (and mystic!) are indivisible, they all see & imagine & intuit & appreciate the whole beauty of the flower. Feynman is right for sure, he was a real scientist, but his friend wasn't a real artist. I'd add that it isn't necessary to physically dismantle anything to see the beauty either, though our current dominant scientific culture seems to think that way.
Interviewer: John, what’s your favourite colour? John: Well of course nature is beauty and love, climbing a mounting is where you’re at one with God. When you’re observing you’re still. We must be still so we can see.
Especially good to hear you John, and wonderful to see the truly beautiful earth making an appearance. Thank you to everyone involved in the production of this.
How was your day John? John: "I've never found a human answer to anything, never. I've grown to distrust my own mind. My own thoughts. You just get bored with yourself, that's it. We get more engrossed in our identites. The whole John bit. I tend to go back to nature." Me: Ok John.
Solarnaut Rules Sounds like you've bolted a statement onto a question inappropriately which is a little unfair even if it was meant to be a joke. It's a little unkind.
I am amazed and intrigued by some of the doubters by the comments stated below, and in life, there will always be doubters. Our minds in a way plays tricks with the direction of our lives head in from the day we are born and always testing the waters, like being mislead by temptation or greed. In the end, the play always ends. Self actualization.
In all honesty these videos listening to John has opened me up to a greater thinking and appreciation and I have a better outlook and am kinder to my fellow man
Helpful hint: Older people hate being called adorable or cute. They/we have had hugely full lives: Careers, children, harsh losses, brilliant joys, adventures, failures, triumphs, & successes. We have despaired & been elated, made discoveries, and apologized for our sins as well as hiding skeletons in our closets. We have attained these ages gracefully & clumsily; entering through doors & climbing in windows, and we didn't come this far to be considered transmogrified lawn gnomes that are cute. Please don't work in a comprehensive care home, ever, if you feel like treating older people as something whimsical and diminutive, with that annoying & condescending voice that sounds like a child is being spoken to.
I lost innocence but gathered it back because of the ones I chose to lose it with :) even though few experiences I couldn't translate just then. Our age doesn't affect much of our life expectancy.
I can relate to John when he says he got bored with philosophy and nature became his teacher. 😄😄😄 That's not to say I don't lean toward certain philosophies and theologies like stoicism or Swedenborgianism. But, I am reminded of the myth when Shams of Tabriz first met Jelalludin Rumi: he took Rumi's books and threw them in a fountain essentially saying it's time to live it and stop reading and conceptualizing it.
Wow when he said I'm out of my mind I thought of Apostle Paul when he was speaking about what's above in Christ Jesus. Paul said it too "I'm out of my mind" As others maybe thought of him. But Paul said it about himself because he was a witness of the truth in Christ Jesus the Lord.
He should talk to people on universal credit who can't feed their families. I'm sure they'll get comfort from this. You have no food and are starving but look at a cloud.
Thank u! These deep Thoughts and such are only allowed bcuz of the prosperity the world has that allows ease of life If he had to garden hunt and just survive he’d likely not have the time Nor space to think as such
BEHOLD FOR NO SIN NOR TEMPTATION IS EVER WORTH THE COST IT WEIGHS UPON THY OWN SOUL SOON WE WILL REAWAKEN SOON WE SHALL AGAIN ARISE Us Thy Destined Soul's Of Thy Light Inside THY KINGDOM COME UPON YOU ALL
According to Romans 6 v 14 it says "Sin must not be master over you" How did humans inherit the sinful, dying condition that plagues us all? The bible explains "By the trespass of the one man (Adam) death rules as King over Adam's descendants (Romans 5 v 12, 14 and 17) Happily though, we can choose no longer to be ruled, or dominated by sin. By exercising faith in Christ's ransom sacrifice, we place ourselves under the rule of God's undeserved kindness (Romans 5 v 20 & 21) Even though we remain sinners, we need not resign ourselves to having sin dominate our lives. When we do give in to sin, we will ask God for his forgiveness. Therefore, we come under the rule of undeserved kindness with what result? Paul explained: "The undeserved kindness of God....trains us to reject ungodliness and worldly desires, and to live with soundness of mind and righteousness, and godly devotion. (Titus 2 v 11 & 12)
Satan is the "God of this system" just look around you at all the violence in the world. In fact, just like in Eden, when he used a snake to mislead Eve, according to John 8.v 44 "He is the Father of the Lie" Who, according to Revelation 12 v 9 "Is misleading the entire inhabited Earth" Romans 12 v 9 tells us to "abhor what is wicked. "
Yes, I agree. If anyone's interested in my long journey to get here, details are found in my book, 'Wonders of Spiritual Unfoldment', available from the website www.spiritualunfoldment.co.uk .
The commemorative plaque on the stone behind, strikes me as being quite foretelling. Just who is the Vicar of Bakewell to the world now? And how will he be enshrined?
Also the well known phrase 'The map is not the territory' springs to mind for those that flex chapter and verse as if it were God's walking stick.. The printed word is but ink and paper, a map, to where? HERE! Where else could it possibly be. I can see this being another 'hot potato' for those that love the 'idea' of Jesus and the control of spiritual wisdom. Now just imagine that what John is saying is actually known by the head of the church and always has been.... I guess that would be a bombshell to the true spiritual seeker.
You're doing it wrong. Have to get your testicles above your head. Some people try yoga, some people just chop 'em and plop 'em. Above their heads that is.
Lol you guys are great -- he asks a question John takes off somewhere-- then back to another question from you - utterly confused-- and John takes off to another part of world ! Sin is mentioned 2-3 times ! I love the utter British handball game with no logical direction! This could be an SNL skit !
Could it be that this temporary transient existance in its ever changing nature is no less eternal than the eternal never changing existance John speaks of.Cirtainly seems real enough at the time.I think all that comes to pass is still valid if viewed as a constant wheel of becoming rotating around a still centre.We are both egoless and evolving ego and BOTH have there validity.
The foolishness of God is greater than the wisdom of man,...the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,... for there is a way that seems right to a man but the end result is death......The creater himself came down from heaven (even the Son) to show us how much love God has for us, and he wears our scars for eternity. Jesus said (I am the way the truth & the life, no man goes to the Father but by me).

This is what happens when a Christian practices meditation (or any one else). The perennial religion arises out of the words and symbols.

Jesus said (I am the way the truth & the life, no man goes to the Father but by me).
