    The difference is in your choice, intention and mindset:

    1) You may turn the other cheek because you consciously choose to; you realize that the drama being played out is the other person's drama, not yours, and you are indifferent to it, while possibly having compassion for the other.

    2) You may turn the other cheek because you choose to follow what some religion tells you you should do; this is being a slave.

    It is in conscious choice:

    1) You may choose STO, but STO doesn't mean you give yourself up to everyone else. It is just the mindset from which you operate. You don't sacrifice yourself for others, you just choose to be of service in balance with your respect for all things, including yourself.

    2) You may have a victim mindset, whereby you haven't chosen STO, but rather given into your "lot" to be always putting others before self. This is being a slave (to your own choices).

    I don't know what the LOO states about this, but I think Christianity and all religions promote slave mentality. They all expect their followers to follow--this is being a slave to something.

    When one becomes a follower.

    Because it's about control. Keep the masses thinking certain things, such as, Money is the root of all evil, and it creates a situation that makes the money and the people easier to control.

    The idea is to think for yourself, trust your own conclusions. Don't "follow" and don't "believe." Once you believe, your mind is set and information is filtered. Make conscious choices.
