Warfare seems to follow mankind as he 'progresses through the chakras' - so to speak.

In other words, in the beginning, it was about footpaths, footprints (territory) and foot soldiers.

Then it was about control of genetics (the sexual organs)......tribal war. Solved by intermarriage.

Then about food.......and things 'of the gut'. Being another's food overlord.

That gave way to factions attempting to gain the hearts of its subjects. The 'romantic period'.

Individualism arose, giving allowance to 'free speech' by the commoner.....in theory.....laws as legal wording rather than violent punishments on the spot.

Now it's in the mind.........and they have to control it.

Warfare moving upward 'through the chakras'.

India has seen this many times and it is often prefaced with a 'Tantric' period of sexual conflagration.
