It is a natural thing for the brothers to fight

As the kirtana commenced, devotees came up one-by-one, offering handfuls of fragrant rose petals at their beloved spiritual master?s feet, before bowing prostrate on the floor. Prabhupada nodded his head and smiled, appreciating the sincere loving service of the devotees. Majestically, he gathered handfuls of flowers in his right hand and sent a cascade streaming into the crowd of devotees who starting dancing as though magically infused with life. It was the loving gesture of an exalted father blessing his tiny, inexperienced children. Although his children in Auckland did not see eye-to-eye, at least for the time being they were all together, serving their spiritual master side by side. By worshipping Srila Prabhupada as one, chanting together, taking prasadam together, they would please him. As Prabhupada had written Bhurijana: ?It is a natural thing for the brothers to fight, as long as they all stay obedient to the father.?
