Obedience is the reinforcement that holds Master/slave relationships together. Obedience is more than conformity. Obedience must not be false on the slave's will. A slave should never question the obligation to obey. Without complete obedience the Master cannot retain complete charge of the slave. It is only with absolute obedience from the slave that that the Master can take charge of the slave. With a single act of wayward disobedience the Master/slave relationship will be put in jeopardy. It most often will call for penalty or punishment.

Obedience is behavior intended to please your Master. Obedience is the act of obeying. Obedience is dutiful or submissive behavior with respect to your Master. Obedience is the trait of being willing to obey.

Obedience in Master/slave behavior describes the slave's act of carrying out commands, or being motivated by the Master. Obedience to a Master differs from compliance, which is behavior that is influenced by peers, and from conformity, which is behavior that is intended to match that of the majority.

The excellence of being an obedient slave is to dutifully comply with the commands or instructions of the Master in an obedient manner.

A slave is obligated to act in a manner that demonstrates faithfulness to the Master and obeys all rules, orders and guidelines.

Obedience is an act of will and it develops gradually, showing itself unexpectedly at the end the long process of development of the slave. While this inner development is going on, a slave may obey occasionally, but be completely unable to obey consistently. As their will develops through the exercise of the Master, the slave begins to have the self-discipline or self-control necessary for obedience.

Obedience is as basic an element in the structure of the Master/slave lifestyle. The Master's authority is a requirement of the slaves existence, and it is only the slave under the master's will who is forced to respond, with submission, to the commands of the Master. For many slaves, obedience becomes a deeply ingrained behavior tendency, indeed a potent impulse overriding emotion, self-absorption, and conduct.

The philosophic aspects of obedience are of enormous import, but they say very little about how most slaves behave in concrete situations.

In order for a slave to exhibit proper behavior and properly submit to the Master training the slave, a slave must be obedient. Obedience, for Master/slave lifestyle purposes is the whole mind and body of the slave submitting to the will of the Master and the Master's rules. It is a mental state of being obedient, and conformity with the Master. It is the slave being subjected to any restraint or control the Master may choose for the slave.

Obedience has to be learned, extended and practiced in order for the slave to become an valuable slave. It is a state of mind that involves a conscious choice on the slave’s part. The slave agrees to being owned and part of that ownership is the slave's agreeing to be obedient to the Master.

Discipline in training is engaged by the Master to teach proper behavior and obedience. Discipline is described as teaching and application training, whether physical, mental or moral. It is a method to instill proper behavior and obedience before a violation has been committed.

Slave training is a process of the slave giving the slave's freedoms to the Master. Complete obedience is a part of that process.

The slave in the environment of serving the Master is obedient in that the slave has chosen to give the slaves self to the Master for serving. In serving the Master, the slaves obedience can eventually become independent of all or almost all training where the slave automatically obeys. It is safe to say that the usual goal for slaves who have given themselves to the Master is that the slave's obedience becomes unconditional, habitual, innate, and immediate, given the restrictions of the slave's body.

For slaves, the obedience determines what can be enjoyed. It determines the slave's self-esteem and pleasure. It connects the slave to the Master. It gives the slave principle.

Slaves are initially ordered to do seemingly trivial things, such as picking up the Master's coat off the floor, walking in just the right position, or sitting and standing in formation. These orders gradually become more demanding, until an order to the slave gets an immediate obedient response.

The slave always has the choice of remaining in the relationship and being obedient to the Master or leaving. The slave obediently chooses to serve the Master.

Possible situations in which the slave might disobey and leave are when the Master makes requests that are beyond the scope of the original contract. For example if the contract was that the slave not be asked to break the law and the Master asks the slave to break the law, the Master will do so at the risk of ending the relationship. If the Master begins to make demands that violate the original agreements and expects the slave to obey, then the Master places the relationship in jeopardy and a likely outcome will be the termination of the relationship.

In an ideal Master/slave relationship, the commitment will be unconditional. The Master will expect complete obedience and complete responsibility. The Master trust the slave to be obedient and the slave trusts the Master to be responsible.

In a Master/slave relationship, the Master who will accept the obedience of the slave also has accepted the responsibility for the results, which will flow from that obedience of the slave.
