Hi Le Regard,
When reading through this thread I must admit I had to laugh!
I am pretty new to metaphysics in such and even newer to the Carlos Castaneda stuff.
The first person whose work I studied the most was Edgar Cayce. Indefinitely a different tone than Carlos' stuff but very informative non the less!
Although I am new I have been inhaling as much metaphysical stuff I can from all the verified resources (including Cayce).
Apparently most people are pretty subject to influence...most of the day most of us are. We are on "autopilot". Anytime a person is in autopilot they are subject to influence. The way I came across this information was that ly was presented to me when I first heard about people being controlled by others. I questioned how and the information came to me in a book I was reading on a different subject.
"Influence" is different than control however and different than rape! A car salesman can convince you to buy an overpriced car but you wont be a him to take him to jail for extortion!
When people are truly standing 1000 per cent in their presence and paying fill attention and actually -using- their will, no one can influence them to do anything. This is our "free- will". It isnt always that free. Only when we are paying attention.
Serloco wouldn't be able to coerce someone that truly in their will 100% did not want to.
I can reference info on this is if anyone wants.

Hello and welcome, now being a female, did you feel violated in any way when I intended you to want me?
There seems to be a very fine line here between suggestion and coercion, and if we can collectively at least look into that, I apologize for doing the whole finger pointing rape rape rape thing.
I'm guessing the basic principle is that allegedly deep down they secretly, "unconsciously", really do want it, they've always wanted it, and all you've done is tune them into an opportunity.
Coercion would then seem to mean they DON'T want it, not at all, like NO PART OF THEM AT ALL WANTS IT.
But who is that? Who DOESN'T want it? You end up in this slippery slope logic where rape becomes actually impossible.
