Energy, War, and the Decline of Coherence

The early decades of the twenty-first century have revealed a convergence of military, economic, and ideological pressures centred upon energy systems. This paper examines the targeting of energy infrastructure in the Russo-Ukrainian conflict, situating it within historical precedent and modern technological development. Particular attention is given to the evolution of remote warfare, from the “robot bombs” of the Second World War to contemporary drone systems, and to the psychological and civilisational implications of such methods. Esoteric interpretations, especially those derived from the writings of Alice A. Bailey and the Tibetan (Djwhal Khul), are considered as a parallel interpretive framework.
