What is a war? It is an imbalance on the scales of life. Yes, men and countries have put all their grudges, ambitions and greed on one tray of this scales, and nothing to counterbalance them on the other tray. Then there comes a time when the disproportion is such that violence prevails. It is impossible to prevent misunderstandings and hostilities between individuals and nations, but if at the same time there were enough people who could reestablish the balance through their thoughts, feelings and prayers, then evil would at least be neutralized, and the negative tray of the scales would not tilt to the point where war would break out. Once hostilities are triggered, what do people do? Ministers, ambassadors, heads of states meet and bring the problem before the U.N., etc. Of course, this is not pointless, but it is a bit late.
Initiatic science teaches that before a war is declared on the physical plane, it has already been declared up above on the psychic plane; those that wage war on each other are the egregores - the collective entities of the countries. People do not believe enough in the power of thought and feelings. There is an accumulation of so many misunderstandings, so many grudges, so much hatred on the psychic plane that, one day, actions are bound to follow. Actions are always the consequence of thoughts and feelings.
