DEAR Sai: The Lion's RoarJun 04, 2020
Season 2 - The Tail End
And just like that, we’ve come to the end of the second season of The Lion’s Roar. Throughout discourses 4 to 6, Swami has granted us enough guidelines and pointers. The ball’s now in our court! Are we going to brave the internal path? Or go round and round on the external path?
We are truly honoured to have been on this journey with you, fellow seekers. Your thoughts and comments on this survey will be very valuable to us - http://bit.ly/TLR-S2. And, if you have something further you’d like to share with us, drop us a mail at syaa.dearsai@gmail.com! As always, our Telegram channel is available if you’d like to venture further into the den with some bonus content - https://t.me/joinchat/AAAAAE_5VNrKMIAHX-dkSg.

S2 E20: Graceful Surrender & Gratitude to the Creator
In this final section of Discourse 6 of Summer Showers in Brindavan 1990, Swami links it all together (all the way to world peace!) as He shows us just how far reaching the power of good thoughts are. Swami brings to the table everything we’ve learnt so far, as He serves us the most moving meal we’ve ever had - chapathi with a side of TRUE surrender!

S2 E19: The Many From the One & Selfishness Undone
Swami exposes the roots of our individualistic thinking as He tells us to mind ourself(ish) and arms us with a 2-step plan! Why do tomorrow what we can do today? This human birth is precious and it’s time to tap into the treasure of peace that lies within. With the mantra, ‘I am man, I am not an animal’ Swami draws us deeper into this next section of the sixth discourse of the Summer Showers in Brindavan 1990 series.

S2 E18: The Inner Path & The Intellect In Charge
Two roads diverge as Swami presents an inner path and an outer path. The question is not which one should we take; it’s whether we’re going to take the one Swami is leading us on. Swami sprays away bad thoughts and purifies our mind as we continue with the sixth discourse of the Summer Showers in Brindavan 1990 series.

S2 E17: Roots of Projection & Currents of Division
Enter the Maze… We know how to get in, but can we get out? Swami shows us an amazing way as He brings on the axe and dispels the root of fear. He even gives us swimming lessons as he teaches us to go against the current of division and streamline our minds towards good thoughts! What’s the difference between a good thought and a bad thought? Jump into this next section of Discourse 6 as our lifesaver Swami pulls us along!

S2 E16: The Mindful All-Rounder & An Expansive Bouncer
We’re on a bit of a sticky wicket as Swami points out just how deep and subtle the concept of division runs in our minds, in the very fibres of how we think and perceive the world. How do we restitch these seams? Will Swami get us ‘across the line’ or will the mind hit us for six? It’s nail-biting stuff, as we open on the sixth discourse of the 1990 Summer Showers in Brindavan series: ‘Hold the Reins’!

S2 E15: Distilling the Essence by Waiving the Difference
We see the world through a glass-bottomed boat as four words take on a whole new perspective. Swami waves away everything we think we know when it comes to culture, religion, what is worldly and what is spiritual. All divisions dissolve as we dive into the ocean of oneness in this final section of the fifth discourse of the Summer Showers in Brindavan 1990 series.

S2 E14: The Senses Brought to Heel & A Queen’s Appeal
As the welcome blanket of sleep is laid upon the Kaurava camp, a lone, cloaked figure of regal bearing gracefully and silently flits through the shadows. She moves with purpose towards the tents of the opposing army’s upper echelons. The woman in question is the Pandava Queen, Draupadi. Why would the queen herself make her way through the enemy camp? What is she doing? As the plot unfolds in this sweet epi-shoe-de from the Mahabharata, Swami leads us to think deeply about the end-point of sense control.

S2 E13: A Tale of Two Tents & Lessons in Deportment
What’s a husband to do? Invitations are sent and we pitch a tent as young Prahlada tells a story to lead us to enlightenment. Where does sense-control begin and end? Swami refines our every move; how we walk, talk, sit, sleep - even study, with a noteworthy list of practical guidelines.

S2 E12: Lapses Four & A Gift That's Spoken For
The post is in! A letter from the Elizabethan era brings to our attention the gift we didn’t know we already had. Swami talks us through excessive talk in this next section of the sixth discourse of the Summer Showers in Brindavan 1990 series. We won’t say much more than this but - Swami always has the last word. Word.

If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? If your eyes haven’t seen the picture does the picture exist? It’s a case of “AT.MA. Phone. Home” as Swami lovingly ushers us into the path of Enquiry - the only way to really transcend our human limitations.

S2 E10: A Silent Guide to the Enjoyer Inside
The tongue is the square root of control. With a bridle, a rudder and a spark of fire, Swami shows us just how powerful our speech is. We launch into the fifth discourse of the Summer Showers in Brindavan 1990 series as Swami leads us down a sacred, royal road into true silence.

S2 E9: From Darkness to Light, Who Powers Our Sight?
On this most auspicious New Year’s day, Swami ushers us into the fifth discourse of the Summer Showers in Brindavan 1990 series: The Road to Divinity. What does it take to make our lives worthwhile? The effort that is required is purely to seek, to examine, to enquire… “Who is powering the eyes with which I am reading these words?” An illuminating start to the discourse and the year!

S2 E8: An End Most Pointy & Methods of Mastery
We look back on this most eye-opening discourse on the wonder-inducing senses. In those moments of weakness when the beast can’t be tamed, this list of Swami’s sensory solutions will guide us along the way. Swami's packed a lot into this trip so let’s get our bearings before we take the next turn on this Road to Divinity.

S2 E7: Excuses, Excuses & Fanciful Pretenses
Should we give in to our senses: Yes or no?
If the answer to this question seems difficult, then the words from Swami that we’re about to see will grant us sagacious vision and remove the misconceptions that have allowed our senses free reign. In this final part of the fourth discourse of the Summer Showers in Brindavan 1990 series, we unflinchingly march towards the end goal of sense control: True Freedom.

S2 E6: A Platterful Happening & Coloured Comprehending
Lord Krishna has had a plate full of it as the severity of the situation comes to a head. The 101st misdeed emerges in a mystery - and makes us question the truth behind the sense-sational palettes we have been creating with our sensory palate! Swami reveals God’s impartiality as He expands and corrects our coloured, partial vision of creation.

S2 E5: Building Fences for the Wild Senses
This episode, Swami takes us on a ride as we gallop down five different routes on the way to mastery of the senses. The wool has been pulled over our eyes, and it's time for us to uncover the deception, take the reins and tame these wild horses! Yeeha!

S2 E4: A Sweetness That’s Real & Devotional Feels
There's a fair whack of insight in the middle section of Discourse 4 where Swami compares the pair and distills for us the true essence of sense control. And what does a 14th century saint and a master key have to do with this? There’s a sense of adventure in the air as we crack the case!

S2 E3: A Helpful Guide to Managing the Whims of our 10 Wives
Wedded to the 10 senses (knowingly, or unknowingly), we’ve put the cart before the horse. Sense control is a gradual, internal process. What does this mean?

S2 E2: A Senseless Feast & Restless Beasts
Let’s be real, the concept of sense control isn’t the most appealing... to anyone. But don’t we want to constantly be at peace? Avoid the pendulum of life striking us with all it’s dualities? If we want freedom, REAL freedom - from all of this then - we have to make the effort. Who should be in control? Because at this point our senses are. In today’s episode, we begin with the first part of the fourth discourse of the Summer Showers in Brindavan 1990 series: Mastery of the Senses.

Poetic Preludes - Discourse 4 (Bonus)
Before the roar, the air would soar with the weight of anticipation. On some thrilling occasions, prior to the discourse Swami would gift the world with a small poem that encapsulated the Truth of what followed. These poems put us in the right frame of mind for understanding the key messages Swami spoke about. In this ‘Poetic Preludes’ bonus episode we bring you the poem that preceded the fourth discourse of the Summer Showers in Brindavan 1990 series, with a SYAA twist.

| One may acquire great scholarship and come out victorious in assemblies of scholars;
One may be a great hero and win battles galore;
One may be born as a king of kings and rule a vast empire;
One may generously give away in charity gold and cows;
One may be able to count the countless stars that adorn the sky;
One may be able to name the innumerable species of living beings;
One may be well-versed in ashtanga vidya (the eightfold path of yoga);
One may be successful in reaching the Moon;
But no one can control their body and senses,
Nor conquer their mind and keep it
In a state of constant introversion and unshakeable equanimity. |
S2 E1: An Eye-Opening List with a Twist

You In Me & I In You (Bonus)
When the storm of problems and disasters strike with such force that everything around us collapses, we must depend on our own wings to be safe. But what are our wings? It is not our strength or this body’s ability…. The strength in our wings is our higher Self, our Swami.
If we look back in our lives, we can see the numerous instances where He has taken care of us. Will He not keep taking care of us? God is taking care. God will take care. With this confidence, we can surely soar above the problems, trials and tribulations of this material world and reach our destination.
Professor Kasturi shares the following [poem of Swami's], in Sathyam Sivam Sundaram - Volume 4:
“My boys,” [Swami] writes,
“The bird with you, the wings with Me;
The foot with you, the path with Me;
The eye with you, the form with Me;
The thing with you, the dream with Me;
The world with you, the heaven with Me -
So are we bound, so are we free,
So we begin, and so we end,
I in you and you in Me.”
In this bonus episode, we bring you the poem that Swami wrote with a SYAA twist.
[More on Swami's definition of Self-confidence in Episode 11: Four Fs, a Fearless Test & the Self Reassessed]
S1 E12: Fiery Fortitude & Grazing Attitudes
Food. Head. God. Swami knows where this is going, but the question is, do we? God marks the spot as we map the route to spiritual truth. Little do we know that the treasure is Teacher too! Our bones melt with humility in the fire of a great devotee as we look at Swami’s definition of unshakeable faith, in this last section of the third discourse.

This body is a valueless iron safe
Like the precious jewels kept in an iron safe,
There is the Divine inside the body.
This Sai’s Word is the path of Truth.
What you call God is not in some far off place,
That God is in your very body;
What you call sin is not in a distant country
It is there in the very actions that you perform. |
S1 E6: Questions, Directions & Faith-Filled Reflections
What does it mean to see Swami as our Guru? How does how we see the Teacher, change how we see the Teachings? As we approach Guru Poornima we thought we’d take a step back from the discourses to really explore and reflect on these questions. Let our God Positioning System show us the way!
