- Faith is the evidence of things not seen. It's higher knowledge. When we see from a higher level of consciousness, things are not as real, or the same as they seem from down below.
This is a special ASMR edit of 'Why do bad things happen to good people?' without the distractions of music and Phil's questions for those who prefer to listen to John's voice only.
Special thanks to Superglued for ASMR audio engineering - subliminalglue@gmail.com.
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/commonsenseguidetomedi....

Smart to add the asmr tag in the title. The more people hearing John’s message, the better off this world will be. Love you guys!
That's how I found the man ! What a gift ! :)
To me this looks like a CZcams à-la-mode shortcut to gain views, which is both absurd and unexpected.
@@graziacavasino8884 Might be, but I find nothing wrong with it. Why not uses the platform to share John’s wisdom with as many people as possible? I’m not into asmr, but somehow CZcams recommended a video of John a few years back. Otherwise, I doubt I’d have heard of him.
@@brettneuberger6466 As you please.
So true. It's how I found Thich Nhat Hanh. I initially only listened to it to relax and over time I came to listen to, then understand and finally even agree with the words. Now I can say Thich Nhat Hanh has truly helped transform me, and I found him just through an asmr channel.
Phil, you did not provide us content.
You provided us a gift.
❤️
Peaceful. If everyone in the world was like John... well, it wouldn't be this world.
For everyone to be like John , everyday long hours practice of meditation and extreme self discipline are needed.
The world is fucked up because most people ARE like him.
@@iflyboats what do you mean?
@@evridikisiara9803 read the replies. Most people who hear what he says think he’s enlightened. They already ARE like him. But he isn’t enlightened, he’s a mystical crackpot who ruined and wasted his life being irrational.
@@iflyboats lol do you know him personally?
Funny...I needed to hear this NOW. There are no coincidences. John has transcended ASMR giving wise advice in a soothing, quiet manner allowing the viewer the opportunity to just rest and listen. Thank you John and Phil!
Thank you. Phil
He is full of wisdom and I think we should pay more attention to what the elders say. They have lived and have so much experience. This man brings me so much comfort hearing his philosophical thoughts ❤️
Such a splendid old lad. Not preaching or lecturing; just sharing wisdom from the wisest owl in the greenwood. Bless you John Butler.
I do believe the old chap is Santa Clause.
What a peaceful and beautiful soul he has, love it
The never-ending adventures of John and Phil. Thank you both so much for all you are doing to create these wonderful dialogues for us.
Many thanks Sandro - appreciated. Phil
I love John so much. Beyond asmr, his messages resonate with me. I appreciate this channel a lot. Thank you💛
When I grow up I want to be just like you John
LOL love the title. You have finally embraced it. The beauty is John's message will still shine through to so many people. :)
They've been on the ASMR bandwagon for ages. It's all the same on some level.
I know so many people that are afraid to sit in silence,they are afraid of their own thoughts.I use to be one of those people, Now,I am a person who loves the silence and the presence. Thankyou for sharing John and Phil such a blessing of peace in your voice.
Dear John, This summer I became aware of these segments having had no experience previously with meditation, but they were strikingly fascinating, enlightening and wise. My grandmother has just passed away and the notions of which you speak such as oneness, separation, consciousness, infinitude, darkness, love, spirit etc. have never been so real as they are today. Perhaps they will become increasingly so until ‘my’ individual separation is taken into the unity of the beyond... With peace and dignity, Abby
I feel like I'm only now learning about life, thank you CZcams, and school was a waste of time
Right there with you! Check out School of Life on CZcams.
@@revan552 could not agree with you less. You must not be truly listening
@@revan552 so your version of reality is right is it? Oh l am so sorry l did not realise your superiority on this. Please accept my apologies. 🙄🙄🙄
@@allisonmeadows33 ooooh l should too. Sounds interesting! Yeah school wasn’t a complete waste of time but man they really need to update the curriculum to what bloody matters and sift through the bullshit!
John is too pure for this world ❤️
"Unintentional ASMR"
...he's become self aware!
I like your pfp
Faith is trust in what is intangible or invisible, confirmed and expanded through your own experiences.
@@revan552 that’s a personal belief. I used to be very athiest until I realized that this is not true. Please just share positivity
@@revan552 and of course you know the actual truth.
@@revan552 mans been waiting for this moment his whole life
@@revan552 we get it bro you don’t gotta explain
Phil. Thank you thank you for recording this purest of wisdom from John. We are so indebted to you.
Can we all take a moment to appreciate this man’s beard? I’d love to have some tea with John and have a long talk.
I’m an agnostic but i know wisdom when I hear it.
Thank you so much for doing this, you’re an angel ❤️
Thank you for this video. God bless you all!
John I can listen to your calming voice forever peace and blessing be with you.
It's amazing just how some things come together perfectly; I was thinking and reading something similar to what he has spoken just today before meeting his content; I didn't believe in chance then, and surely don't do it know.
His thoughts and ways are surely higher than ours; and thank you for lecturing me that once more. May God bless you, John Butler.
Compliments from Brazil.
Great to see you John you always calm me it's younger looking your getting must be all the meditation 💕
Always learn something new ..thank you Phil and John
By far my favorite channel you can gain so.much wisdom just listening
Thanks. Phil
Thank you for this deep deep knowledge 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you, John.
This is beautiful
We are so blessed to have someone like John in this world. Wonderful message. Miss Phil though!
Such a beautiful soul
When we blink at a loud sound or when we twitch while we dream, scientists call it an autonomic response. But we don’t know for certain if there is any other kind of response when we’re awake.
Thank you.
Happy new year John. With Gratitude
Love and Blessings. Jonathan
IMO, even though Mr. Butler doesn’t identify with his “conceptual frameworks” any singular area of study, I would say with the level of his understanding, that his disposition is very “Philosopher-esque”.
💫 Amazing work Mr. Butler❕
I will never forget you John .
Knowledge, in the biblical sense, is interactive experience-knowledge of rather than knowledge about....
Love you John.
God bless you all! 🙏
May he bless you too! :-)
I honestly fell asleep listening to this amazing guy
How? With all the background noise?! Sounds like there is a bull running around in that china shop.
Said before on these videos, I don’t always agree with John and I’m not really even remotely a spiritual person, but he is a pleasure to listen to, listen being the operative word.
So very careful with his words and that’s a rare property these days.
couldn’t agree more. also UTMP🔴⚪️
Thankful for all
So good 😊
Happy New Year, mr. Butler! You keep on helping me, but I never return the favor for all the gem you speak. Humbleness, and gratitude! Danke!
He's so cute riding his bike
I was down at the beech the other day & within a minute of me being there on that cloudy day suddenly the sky opened up for about a minute & I could do nothing but stare in amazement
13¶This wisdom have I seen also under the sun, and it seemed great unto me:
14There was a little city, and few men within it; and there came a great king against it, and besieged it, and built great bulwarks against it.
15Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city; yet no man remembered that same poor man.
~Ecclesiates 9
John! So close to 100k!
One of the smartest men I have ever had the pleasure of listening to
In response to the synopsis, I find Phil’s voice just as soothing tbh.......
You need to do this in a sound booth or somewhere suitable for picking up on John’s tone and sounds, and without the background noise. It really detracts but under the right circumstances and with some improvements this would be a complete winner for us, and for you guys 👍. Keep it up
Been begging to do this for them for 2 years buddy. Lol
Agree the background noise really takes away from the talk. Who is banging so much in the background while they're making a video?
I love you both You give me peace in my heart and I laugh with you ,beauty,all around Lydia
This is what the voice of God sounds like.
Really Good ASMR 💖💖💖 Thank You 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗💖💖💖💖💖💖💖😃😃😃😃😃😃😃
Thanks Sleep Doc - I guess you should know. Phil
God won't change universal law, we were given a path and an exit, the rest is our own walk to decide, free will needs time to exercise itself.
I fully enjoyed this video. Thank you.
🇧🇷 Não consigo entender, mais o tom da sua voz me acalma. 💗
someone please make a loop video with John saying just "consciousness". Nothing more.
Yes, dear John. The faith is the sense of higher knowledge, it's a deep inner sense and finally, at my late 40s I recognize this inner sense that I have been having along all my life. Amen to your words that have been coming out from deep knowing. So grateful and appreciate your presence in my life! Thanks you!
As the great Bob Proctor says, "Faith is acquired through understanding. And understanding can only be acquired through study. There is no other way."
I have to disagree with you there - no amount of study which appeals to the intellect will guide you to the cave of the heart.
There is silence there. Phil

They are almost at 100k
I do believe faith is not about getting our material needs, is not like "hey i got faith to get a Ferrari", for me faith is more about living a right life, trying to be better with everyday experience even if is bad or good. Maybe faith is misunderstood, the real faith can bring you material stuff, faith is about to improve ourselves. Don't want to sound negative, but are plenty of things i asked God with no answer or at least he didn't answer yet. Anyways God bless you all, thanks for read my message.
If you are waiting for God's answer you'd better get a comfy chair...
Oi vi sua reportagem através da BBC aqui no Brasil 🇧🇷❤️
Dear John, first I wanna say how much I enjoy your videos.
Since you are touching a very complicated matter on the first question of why bad things happen to good people I would like to ask you to go into more detail on that.
Bad things happening to good people is a very abstract phrase which might lead to the fact that your answer remains on the quite abstract level, that it depends all on one's own level of consciousness.
Let's take two examples of bad things happening to good people to make it more realistic. A young woman is diagnosed with a disease that will kill her within a year. A father is loosing a child in a traffic accident. I think both are terrible things that change your life in a most profound way and which we wish that they should never happen to anyone.
So let's imagine these people who are full of grief, anger and pain wonder why these bad things have happened to them. Is there in your opinion a certain change of consciousness which could make theses tragedies and their suffering appear not as a bad thing?
Maybe one could answer that these are chances for these peoples to grow in a way that would otherwise have been impossible.
But then one might ask back: if there is a god who chooses this cruel way to make people grow - would he not have the power to let them grow in another way without this incredible suffering?
And second: If I should choose to make my children grow by inflicting terrible suffering on them I surely would be considered a bad person. So if god chooses to act this way - can we still call him a "good god"? Don't we mean when we talk of a good god that god acts in a moral way that's at least remotely connected to our idea of what is good and bad?
Please don't get me wrong. I do not want to criticise you with these questions. I just think that quite often spiritual advice is switching to an abstract level because it cannot stand the confrontation with everyday life. I suppose you have been thinking enough to have confronted yourself also with these matters. So I'd be grateful to hear your opinion on that.
One thing I’d like to point out is you say why would Source make man in such a way that we have to suffer to grow. But the thing is I don’t think God makes it that way as much it just IS that way. It’s like how there can be no good without evil. Maybe it’s not a choice as much as it’s a universal truth or law.
That which suffers and that which is the source of the suffering are not separate they are the same
Hay John there is a Greek orthodox teacher here in the states his name is Theodore Nottingham he has a CZcams channel I believe it’s called Theodore he has a Beautiful Christmas message I think you would enjoy,love Daniel from Arizona. Oh he serves meat not milk biblically speaking.
Ted Nottingham? I thought his channel got deleted?
Ted is absolutely wonderful. Been following him for yours (as a Brit), even before I discovered the wonderful Mr Butler. Many of Ted Nottingham's perspectives align perfectly with John's own outlook. Like John, he is not a scriptural literalist and instead goes straight to the spiritual heart of original Christianity.
@@mindfulparanormal304 he is still around but I think CZcams is messing whit him
❤🙏
Where did you get your button up sweater? I like it 😊
On a previous video, I think he refers to the fact most of sweaters were made by his mother!
Okay! Thanks for the info.
Olá sou brasileira vi seu vídeo no Google e vim aki porque me interessei muito nos seus e achei muito sastisfatorios parabéns pelo seu canal que Deus te abençoe 🇧🇷🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍😍
Wonderful. Beautiful. Absolutely astounding. If you would like to know how to not cause debt in 2020, there is only one way. Mirror it off time using obelisk's and sundial's and use the universal human suit and will balancing tools to exactly balance your will and mirror it off each other and time itself. This will cause the natural singularity which results in a return in everyone's will.
Hello,
Very inconvenience interviews indeed. Resumes of things that is hard to be so accurate like You did.
After all, why don't You just say leave me alone for heaven sakes..
I appreciate very much though. It just mean more than life itself..
Apart everything, wise man loosing his earned privacy and sharing his whole life achievements and giving up his whole life.
It is just breath taking man, no more words except sacrifice.
Love You already.

p.s. its hard to find quite and peaceful place these days.. please do not drop everything.. :)
John your a refreshing change from some of those pompous loud televangelist who loose my attention as soon as they open their big mouths lol 😝
Lower knowledge is found with the brain. Higher knowledge is revealed with the heart.
Good explanation!
13:23 "I think of all the dreadful things I've done in my life" , I wonder if John has ever killed a man.
I am tippin not!
He is so wise, may i ask how old he is?

. When I see my shadow as I'm walking 🚶♂️ along , I think of what is causing the shadow, it's usually the sunshine 🌞 it reminds me of greater Power of God . Psalm 23: 4 . Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, (Testing) l will fear no evil, (protection) For you are with me, (Faithfulness) Your Rod and Your staff they comfort me. (Discipline).
Walk in the Light as He is in the Light.

This is a repost from one of his original videos with Phil.. I know my John Butler ;-)
You do - but which one?! Phil
@@SpiritualUnfoldment - I believe the original one was called "Why do bad things happen to good people?". Am I correct? :o)
@@droge192 bingo 😅
He has the hands of a pianist. Does anyone know if he plays?
Not to sound too harsh since this gentleman has given a lot of thought to both his topics, on the question of Faith it seems the justification is that faith dwells in a higher level of conciseness where evidence is left behind and the vacuum is filled with wishful aspirations, it could also be the place where we can hear voices or that we can substantiate the authenticity of our chosen Gods because Faith is not owned by Christians. On the question of why do bad things happen to good people, a difficult question for most worshippers because it is in conflict with a loving God, and to say we don't see the big picture just doesn't do it, the answer I suggest is that a loving God doesn't exist.
Finally, I've found a comment that isn't just an admiration of John Butler's voice or beard or his wisdom in general.
I was rather disappointed with the answer to the question of ”Why do bad things happen to good people?”. I didn't even get it until I read your comment. Now, at least I understand that the answer could be interpreted as ”good and bad are our subjective interpretations and perhaps from God's perspective it is all perfect”. And it is, in a sense. The world exists and that could be considered a proof of its perfection. I understand that good and bad are our concepts and we project them onto reality but suffering is not a concept, is it? Although, I suppose that enlightened people can transform their suffering into an experience that is as meaningful and bearable as any other experience.
@@AnnaPrzebudzona Thank you for responding. The trouble with interpretations is that you can turn apples into oranges with them. We don't know what Gods perspective is and if "IT" thinks the world is perfect and that good and bad are indiscernible we must deem it to be an immoral entity and not worthy of worship because we know the difference between good and bad and we also know the world is not perfect. The question now is, why should we attach a special pleading license and turn morality on its head just to validate our favourite God. We live in a temporal and evidential world, this is the only reality we know, look down and not up because our two feet are firmly planted in reality.
They need to option the movie rights. John and Phil in Bakewell.Who would play whom? Nobody could do John justice aside from somebody like Sir Patrick Stewart, someone in deep command of language and speech.
Nobody find anybody by accident
Are you guys back in the church? :)
He said the food we crush between our teeth is mini-Christ. Mini-crust more like it.
I wish I'll learn English to understand what you say
Faith as any form of higher knowledge is simple nonsense. Faith is belief with no evidence. That's the lowest form of knowledge. We have a word for it. It's called conjecture.
Who dislikes these? May the one god help you
Theres just certain people on earth who feel like they have to dislike no matter what.
There is no higher knowledge called faith. If you have knowledge faith isn't needed, because knowledge is based on facts and faith is based on beliefs.
He didn’t answer the first two questions. Why bad things happen to good people. He just rambled about consciousness.
Such a sweet man, but so terribly unbiblical. Blasphemous even. 😩 I wish this sweet man would read the Bible to understand the mistake in his thinking. Nothing but love to him.
Thanks for being the bully. Another result for Jesus!
@@midlander4 Go ahead and elaborate for me, I’ll wait.
@@dindypie64 no problem. Telling some old bloke to read your fictional bible, like he never has.

Ugh I can't stand the mouth sounds! Maybe I'll turn the speed up and try tomorrow. Obviously a wise dude.
Maybe a gentle suggestion for you if you would accept? Don't listen to the brains ego telling you it is irritating, instead ignore the brains tortures voices about annoyance and still listen to the message? Just a suggestion though, maybe it could help you listen?
@@uglypug6608 Thanks, I will.
@@NaturallyDone wow you are so missing the point of what makes John fantastic.
@@midlander4 Wow, you completely missed the point!
I’m the same! They say it’s “unintentional asmr” but it’s totally intentional! I feel that at some point someone mentioned asmr so now he smacks his lips and tongue more than he normally would and the microphone is set to pick it all up!
It's okay, God wouldn't put you through all this suffering if he knew you couldn't bare it.
Just curious: What about the people who get so much of suffering that they commit suicide?
Too much background noise. Should really make sure staff knows when he is recording a video, and stop all this background noise. It is very distracting and takes away from his messages.
John rides that bike a million times better than Joe Biden. John is definitely red pilled ❤
