About this listen

"WHO AM I, but just one more of those who, since time began, have walked the hills and gazed upon the stars? When we, with heart outstretched, feel close to God, it's safer to be humble than to think we know. Experience, however, is given to be shared. While others receive otherwise, each part unique, though incomplete, contributes to the whole." John Butler has been practising meditation for over 50 years. In these conversations with Phil Shankland in Bakewell Parish Church and in locations around Bakewell he addresses questions arising from his books and questions from viewers.2017-2025 Spiritual Unfoldment With John Butler Christianity Ministry & Evangelism Spirituality

  • Come Home Where You Belong
    Apr 30 2026
    In the Chakra Lounge, Bakewell, John chats with visitors from Germany, Scotland and most parts of England, who have meditated with him in All Saints church for a week. "We experience life with two aspects - one changes, the other doesn't - the transitory and eternal. We can follow either so, which do we choose? Be insatiable for love. The love that never says 'No'. It calls, 'Come to me, beloved. Come home where you belong'. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

  • Dealing With Thoughts
    Apr 23 2026
    It's a fundamental aspect of the Work to practice attentiveness. Whatever we're doing, work with attention. Even leaning on a stick with attention is a wonderful thing. If enough attention is gathered to a single point, it becomes almost miraculous. Attention is a very good way of dealing with thoughts - when you listen to something with full attention there's no more left to give to thoughts. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

  • Running Out Of Words
    Apr 16 2026
    "I don't seem to have the words in me. Just as the body dies out so do words. A much better teacher is Nature - just look up at the sky. Or listen to the 'tick-tock' of an old clock. A dog resting its head on your lap looking up at you in silence. Much better."" This is the last of the current 'Inside Story' series in which John explores more deeply the 'windows of realisation' in his most popular book 'Wonders of Spiritual Unfoldment' (Chapter 40).
