Rousseau--People in Osho's Talks

Just a few days before I was reading Jean Jacques
Rousseau's Confessions. This is a rare book. It is
really the first book in world literature in which
someone bares himself, totally naked. Whatsoever
sins he has committed, whatsoever immorality, he
opens himself up, totally naked. But if you read the
Confessions of Rousseau you are bound to feel that
he is enjoying it; he feels very much elated. Talking
about his sins, talking about his immoralities, he feels
elated. It seems as if he is enjoying it with much relish.
In the beginning, in the introduction, Rousseau says,
"When the last day of judgment will come, I will say to
God, to the almighty, `You need not bother about me.
Read this book and you will know everything...'"
