Gorean Slave Positions

Obeisance

These three variations are found in Mercenaries of Gor, pg 21.

First Obeisance

In this common position of Gorean slave obeisance, the slave kneels and sits upon their heels with their back and shoulders straight, chest out, belly in, and head bowed. The thighs are open, widely spread.

Second Obeisance

In this position the slave leans their body forward from a nadu position, hair falling forward as they place their forehead onto the floor, palms resting on the ground with outstretched hands on both sides of the head. The slave then slowly raises their head, on the Freeperson's command, inches from the floor, shifting forward so the face is hovering over the Freeperson's feet. The slave then begins to lick and kiss their feet as ordered. (this is not called karta in the novels)

Third Obeisance
or
Belly Position

In this position of Gorean slave obeisance, the slave lowers themselves onto their belly on the floor. They then inch forward, remaining low on their belly, and upon reaching the Freeperson's feet, begin to lick and kiss their feet. The slave then takes the Freeperson's foot and places it gently upon their own head.  Once again the slave then lowers the Freeperson's foot back to the floor, and kisses it again. The slave then may inch backwards a bit, still on their belly, humbly. This command is not the same as "Bara" or "Belly".  It shows complete submissiveness that a Freeperson has total control.

"Now inch forward," I said, " remaining low on your belly, and when you reach my feet, once again as before lifting your head a little, tenderly and humbly, and beautifully, as though you were a slave, lick and kiss them.Good , Good. Now take my foot and place it gently on your head. Very good. Now place it again on the Mat and kiss it again. Good. You may now belly back a little humbly. I have not yet given you permission to rise of course."
