Hilarion: The physical affliction known as asthma is a karmic flow in the aetheric body which from time to time interferes with the physical breathing apparatus. The trigger for the asthma attack can be emotional or it can be due to particles of a certain kind in the air. However, the nature of the triggering influence has little directly to do with what is being learned by the asthmatic through undergoing this condition.
Asthma derives from misuse of energy. There are many souls who have been given access to considerable power and energy in past incarnations, but who have misused it for personal gain, or to bring pain to others. Whenever this occurs, an automatic flaw in the aetheric pattern for the body arises, and this brings the weakness about. Thus, through the operation of this automatic process, the victim of asthma is deprived from time to time of access to air (oxygen) and without this access he is rendered weak and sometimes totally incapacitated. This condition is meant to to remind him, at the level of his higher self, that he yet must work out the problem of the right use of energy. Also, of course, the deprivation of energy is the karmic repayment for having misused energy in the past.
