In the forest when the foxes and jackals and wolves howl it can be very daunting. They howl at various pitches with all their energy seemingly competing for prominence amongst each other. Amid all the screeching and screaming and squeaking and squawking in the forest, when the simplest roar of the lion pervades, announcing its own might, dragging the hearts of the wolves and others down to their knees in utter disappointment, the truth becomes obvious. What to speak when the lion actually roars intently. The words of Sri Madhva are such. Anyone opposed is bound to be disappointed like the wolves and others.
Adapted from an analogy given by Sri Trivikrama Pandita in his Vayu stuti, shloka 31.
