Impromptu #14 Blessings in disguise
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ก.ย. 2024
- Our disappointments, losses and failures are all really blessings in disguise, because they teach us that in this world we are not at home where we belong, but in sin. What is this? It's absence from the presence of God.
On a retreat with new friends Petar, Paola, Maggie, Cristina, Alison, Azza, Sean, Sarah and Rudolph, John answers questions on meditation practice.
Those wanting more detailed accounts of John's life experience - the formative influences, which have taught and made him what he is, will find it in his 8 published books, available through the website: www.spiritualunfoldment.co.uk/store.
Did you know you can now listen to John on Spotify and other audio platforms? Here is his most popular recording 'Common sense guide to meditation' (1m views) - ffm.to/commons....

Nothing like sitting on the bed with my husband and 6 year old son listening to John Butler share his peaceful wisdom! Thank you John for your calm presence in a world of chaos. We appreciate you 🙏
I’m 23 and I let John read me HIS (bedtime) stories lol
I would love to show my kids his videos someday
God bless you!
How wonderful
God bless you
That's wonderful your whole family listening. I'm do happy for you and thsnk God for dear John ❤
When I am utterly alone I am connected to you all, But when I am with you I feel less able to connect with myself, because I am no longer alone,
When I click on a John Butler video, it doesn't even have time to start playing before I click Like.
Remember that you’re amazing! Your parents, your ex’s, toxic people etc. Don’t make them become you. You must let go of what they have done. You must move on from what they did. Don’t carry the poison of hurt expecting your life to change. One must heal, forgive and let go to make SPACE for a new life.
~ Much Love from a Growing TH-camr💜
so you just blame others for the way you feel . ? but then you say forgive them , forgive them for what exactly ? if you have forgiven them then nothing they did was negative or toxic as you call it . just saying to yourself that you are amazing is naive and childish . so what if one of the people who you say are toxic think the same of you , then what ?
God bless that's so sweet and meaningful
I feel like I've struck gold finding this channel 🙏
I’m lieing on my bed with my beloved dog listening to John’s calm words … even my dog is relaxed and happy listening to John’s voice .. perfect Saturday afternoon
I’m middle-aged and throughout my life Ive been confused, agnostic, atheist, religious, deist, atheist again. All over the place 😊 I have a mixed faith family so I’ve had to learn to be tolerant of other beliefs whilst also feeling rather confused myself. I’m glad to say that I do believe in God and I have found Christ. Listening to your wisdom reinforces my beliefs. You’re a wonderful speaker and full of wisdom. You explain things beautifully. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and God bless you ❤
Glad to hear you have ‘landed’ on Jesus as He is the Only Way to salvation.
Lovely message, thank you 🙏 Phil
Oh my God. It's all right here. I see it. The suffering of life is asking what it isn't giving you. God's love is felt when we're not suffering. Having the courage to have faith in God is like daring to have infinite gratefulness.
I look forward to these videos every week
I really look forward to these videos so much. Been meditating more and more keeping present the rest of the time. To me...stillness is bliss...
When someone mentions the second coming of Jesus to me I always say he never left!❤❤❤
Just seeing this man’s face calms me down. Thank you John :)
Lovely ideas, very relaxing, thank you John 😊
You have a lot of people that care about you, John! Love this man.
I'm here sitting in my home in Australia yet, while listening to John just now, I kind of felt very close to him in Spirit. Just like Mary sitting at the feet of Jesus, it was as if I was sitting at the feet of John, listening attentively. Thank you once again.
As a long time follower of John I find that every video he uncovers another piece of the jigsaw puzzle we all call life
Present in spirit. Imma try that at work.
"You can't commandeer the heart, you can only follow it. You can't commandeer meditation. Meditation isn't anything you can control. It's a surrender."
John helps my Buddhism practice strengthen. Just the conventions are different the spirit is same - learning to let go and surrender to the deathless 🙏🏻
I'd love I'd john worked in a local supermarket and I randomly asked him where is the bread and he gives you the best quotes so much wisdom by the time I get to the tea bags ,,,thanks for everything john.
Thank you.
How nice; a new video😀 also, Jesus said he needed to leave so he could send the Spirit to be with us❤❤❤
Love you John ❤
Awwww. I missed tuning in to you all earlier. I had to go into the
Office today (I work remotely most days) shucks. How is e everyone today? Stay blessed.
Hello RJ. I am well. How are you today? Kindly, C.
Thank you John Butler. Although English is not my mother tongue, I enjoy your videos and I believe I can get the positive vibe even with a slight language barrier. At first I heard them in the evenings and fell asleep with them. I wanted to improve my English again a bit and I've heard that falling asleep with the respective language is very effective because the subconscious can process even more. I quickly realized that what I found here is much more than the language. In just a few months you made me question and adjust myself and my point of view on certain things. I have the feeling that I can throw away unnecessary ballast and find a little more with myself. That's why I just want to say thank you. And also to Phil who makes it all possible here. Thank you very much!
Your written English is of a higher standard than most English people on here so you’re doing rather well!!
@@hardcoreheaven4 Thank you Dude, i tried my best but it's not all free written. Normaly i don't care that much but in this case i don't want to be wrong in words or grammar. Stay safe.
@@beardandbelly6003 Doesn’t matter; you’re certainly heading in the right direction. My knowledge of other languages is minimal at best. Embarrassing really! Same to you my friend.
During harried moments it arises in my heart....go beyond go beyond go beyond....thank you. And John, I expect what you see as an impediment is the dearly beloved in God's heart.
"...into thine arms my Lord..." so beautiful. Ahhh
This man is Such a lovely lovely soul ;)
John will be with me always.
God's love is so common that it's taken for granted.
Hi John, I love all your videos and perspective about life so much. Much like everyone else, I look forward to them every week. I was wondering if you could ever possibly elaborate a little more about the time you spent in the Peruvian Andes? My mother is from Peru and I find the cultural differences fascinating, much like the difference between Western Europe & Russia.
All Fathers children have hearts that know right from wrong.
I would be very happy if you put Turkish subtitles. Thanks
What are your thoughts on the Holy Spirit. Jesus said before he ascended into Heaven that he will leave with us a comforter. Also in scripture that John baptized you with water, I will baptize you with fire.
That bike is perfect for my needs
This is true wisdom
John is the quintessential English mystic. -
Through his Russian side that is!
It's nothing to do with your beliefs John.It's simply a calming voice.
Beautiful guy ✨✨✨
We need to make his voice like a Lexa💫😏😁
I really want to meet this guy, he's a freaking legend! How can I contact him?
What is in your heart, which is much different than what is in your wallet. There is a parable in the Gospel of Thomas regarding old wine and new wine, would be a good idea to read this and learn.
LAST!!
" 14 blessings in disguise " ... i still don't get it .🤔
Can I get a jumper in khaki please 🙏
Thank you, John.
20.15 'one of the best ways to realise(that)is to stop talking'....and then he continues to talk.Even if it wasn't the case there would definatly be money in turning realisation into a complex bussiness. Not saying John's at it for one minute.But many are
Guys, why is life so boring?
I love John butler ♥
And I love the other guy I forgot his name ❤😬
Phil
Which version of Schubert’s Impromptu is the intro song? Who’s the pianist? Thanks!
Phil played it. You can check discription box.
xx
❤️✨👍🏻
👍
John whats your favorite mantra?! Or one you recommend?!
His favourite mantra is The Jesus Prayer
😴
Spoken like a true narcissist.
What an utterly tragic philosophy to live one's life by that we all work from a baseline of sin. Yes we are mortal and fallible but the concept is predicated upon the existence of the divine. This is utter nonsense and diminishes if not eclipses the benign if not goodness of most people and the good which many do irrespective of faith.
Wisdom????? Bollocks!!!!
Hi John I'm going to England to see you
Thank you.
Thank you
