Ego and Communism

"The history of Communism, originally inspired by noble ideals, clearly illustrates what happens when people attempt to change external reality - create a new earth - without any prior change in their inner reality, their state of consciousness. They make plans without taking into account the blueprint for dysfunction that every human being carries within : the ego."

Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth - Awakening to your life's purpose, chapter "The flowering of human consciousness".
