The essence of an orgy is the disappearance of the individual into a greater whole, in a group that has replaced the normal rules by other ones. the limitations of genital orgasm are replaced by the ecstatic enthusiasm of the group, a curious kind of total jouissance that interconnects the individuals and therefore erases them. This is the same experience that may occur with certain gatherings of religious sects.
