their children are very extravagant, but they just need to be
patient. These extravagant prakrutis will eventually blossom. If
one attains Dada’s vision, there would be no clash between
prakrutis and hence no quarrelling. Every prakruti will blossom
so just be patient and wait. Instead, if a rose bush is blooming

prakruti will blossom or what kind of flowers it will yield;
therefore you just have to be patient.
Every prakruti has different energies and deficiencies too.
In the Satyug, if one person in a household had a temper,
everyone else did too. Now in this Kaliyug, one person will be
hot tempered, another mild, another will have a different
personality altogether. That is why people cannot get along. The
husband rises early in the morning, the wife gets up late and so
