What is the true meaning of obedient?

Answer 1

Subject in will or act to authority; willing to obey; submissive to restraint, control, or command.

Answer 2

It is defined as the act of of obeying. As to "true meaning", it would mean that someone has decided - voluntarily or under coercion - to obey another authority, be it a person or organization. How well they succeed will have much to do with whether it was voluntary, or if not, just how much they fear the authority, and finally, just what may be required at a given point.

It is said that everyone has their limits.
