Not to overlook KM in his September 1843 letter to Arnold Ruge:

"The reform of consciousness consists only in making the world aware
of its own consciousness, in awakening it out of its dream about
itself, in explaining to it the meaning of its own actions. Our whole
object can only be – as is also the case in Feuerbach's criticism of
religion – to give religious and philosophical questions the form
corresponding to man who has become conscious of himself."

"Hence, our motto must be: reform of consciousness not through dogmas,
but by analysing the mystical consciousness that is unintelligible to
itself, whether it manifests itself in a religious or a political
form. It will then become evident that the world has long dreamed of
possessing something of which it has only to be conscious in order to
possess it in reality. It will become evident that it is not a
question of drawing a great mental dividing line between past and
future, but of realising the thoughts of the past. Lastly, it will
become evident that mankind is not beginning a new work, but is
consciously carrying into effect its old work."
