Given, $$\phi_1= p_1cos(\tau+\alpha)$$
$$\nabla\phi_1= -p_1sin(\tau+\alpha) \nabla \alpha+\nabla p_1cos(\tau+\alpha)$$
$$\Delta\phi_1= -p_1 \nabla \alpha \cos(\tau+\alpha) \nabla \alpha-p_1 sin(\tau+\alpha) \Delta\alpha -\nabla \alpha \sin(\tau+\alpha)\nabla p_1-\nabla p_1 \nabla \alpha sin(\tau+ \alpha)+\Delta p_1cos(\tau+\alpha)$$
$$\Delta\phi_1= \cos(\tau+\alpha) [-p_1 \Delta \alpha + \Delta p_1]- sin(\tau+\alpha) [p_1\Delta \alpha+2\nabla \alpha \nabla p_1]$$
 Differentiating $\phi_1$,
$$\phi_1= p_1cos(\tau+\alpha)$$
$$\dot\phi_1= -p_1 sin(\tau+\alpha)$$
$$\ddot\phi_1= -p_1cos(\tau+\alpha)$$
Again,
$$\phi_2 = p_2\cos(\tau + \alpha) + q_2\sin(\tau + \alpha) + \frac{g_2}{6}p_1^2[\cos(2\tau + 2\alpha) - 3] $$
$\omega_1=0$ for the bounding conditions.
$$\dot\phi_2 = -p_2\sin(\tau + \alpha) + q_2\cos(\tau + \alpha) + \frac{g_2}{6}p_1^2[-2 \sin(2\tau + 2\alpha) ] $$
$$\ddot\phi_2 = -p_2\cos(\tau + \alpha)- q_2\sin(\tau + \alpha) - \frac{4g_2}{6}p_1^2[\cos(2\tau + 2\alpha) ] $$
Putting these values in equation,
\begin{align*}
 &\ddot\phi_3+\phi_3+2g_2\phi_1\phi_2+g_3\phi_1^3-\ddot\phi_1-\Delta\phi_1
   +\omega_1\ddot\phi_2+\omega_2\ddot\phi_1 =0

You need to add \right. and \left. when you want to have a parenthesis that spans several lines:

\begin{align*}
&\begin{aligned}
&-Acosx- Bsinx -9Ccos3x-9Dsin3x-4Ecos2x-4Fsin2x+Acosx+ Bsinx +Ccos3x+Dsin3x\\
 &\quad{}+Ecos2x+Fsin2x+G+(p_1\Delta\alpha+2\nabla\alpha\nabla p_1)\sin(\tau+\alpha)-\left[\Delta p_1+\omega_2p_1+\lambda p_1^3+\right.\\
&\left.\quad{}-p_1(\nabla\alpha)^2\right]\cos(\tau+\alpha)+\frac{1}{12}p_1^3(2g_2^2+3g_3)\cos(3\tau+3\alpha)+g_2p_1\left[q_2\sin(2\tau+2\alpha)+p_2\cos(2\tau+2\alpha)+p_2\right] =0
\end{aligned}
\end{align*}
