Acharya Prashant explains that political revolutions often fail within a generation because they are built on the same flawed foundation of the ego. He cites examples like the Soviet Union and unified Pakistan to illustrate that while systems may change, the underlying human condition remains the same. He emphasizes that true revolution must be internal, moving from 'freedom for the ego' to 'freedom from the ego.' He argues that unless the grassroots and the inner moral center of an individual are reformed, no external superstructure can be truly beneficial or lasting.
