The Buddhist way of life proposes that the attainment of the stature of siddha, the state where a person is completely liberated from the worldly pressures and he is aware of his self. To attain such a state of life, one has to practice meditations, along with the recital of mantras. Mantras have invariably become inseparable from religious life of many. The KalaChakra mantra is one of the important among all mantras. It is said to be the essence of Lord Buddha's preaching.
The KalaChakra symbolizes the flow of life and energy in a human being's life. The first four syllables OM AH HUM HOH actually represent the four entities of body, speech, mind and the wisdom. These are the important aspects of the life that a human must be aware of in his life on the planet. By the utterance of each syllable from his heart, a person makes him attain the vajra body (OM). Similarly as he proceeds on with the mantra he is made to realise vajra speech, mind and wisdom. The vajra wisdom is the one where a person's mind is in a state of powerful consciousness. The level of consciousness is subtle but it's powerful in the sense of minds activity.
There are both a along and short forms of the Kalachakra mantra. Though both have similar impact and effects, longer version offers more prospect for a person to have what he desires. The Human body is said to comprise of five streams of energy within. That is the human body is actually inter twined form of energy and flesh. The KalaChakra, as its symbol represents, acts on the energy stream of the body and makes it stronger, by concentrating and manipulating it in the best possible way.
The KalaChakra forms the best of many mantras as it has the potential to not only make the body stronger, but also to improve the wisdom and mind state. The Kalachakra also symbolises the way in which our life is sustained, that is the energy flowing in circles and jus being undiminished over time, unlike the physical life. It is also said that the soul is what the Kalachakra says as energy in our body.
The Kalachakra mantra, as the crisp and clear preaching of Lord Buddha offers its practitioners the perfect health and perfect mind, i.e. perfect state of body and soul. This is what matters the most in our life on this planet. It's best to make the best out of our resources. It is best to make the best out of the Best Kalachakra mantra which is a much needed resource for all.

anything else
There are many mantras to aid the needy souls and make them live happily, but one of the important among them should be the Gaia Mantra. The Gaia is our world, our mother earth. The nothingness that was prevailing was where Gaia was born from and she made this world, along with all the creatures in it. She is the on responsible for the sun, the rain, the land, and all that we live on and upon. The Gaia is to be treated more like a phenomenon, more than a god, more than anything else. The Gaia mantra suggests the same.
The human beings that we are now, all are because of our mother, Gaia. She is omnipresent. We have to respect anything and everything around us, it's the god we should see in every others and every other thing on the earth. We should not harm anything. It's like harming Gaia, if we harm a life or anything that we feel. The soul is one in which Gaia seeks the best prospect. The soul is Gaia, make it clean. Practice what Gaia mantra says.
Gaia Mantra suggests that Gaia, our earth is to be preserved by us, the living forms of her is us and as her beloved children. She is an epitome all that is good, so preach Gaia, make others feel the Gaia factor among us. Feel her and her goodness in everything you see around you, hear and taste around you. The way in which we treat her, will make us persevere, Respect her and make it known to all. She should not be let down.
Our earth faces many undesired things now, with all the living things from plants, insects to human beings divided on many aspects and in turn having a harmful effect on our planet, Gaia. Its time to make the serious moves of making everyone aware of Gaia and the importance of Gaia for our persistence, there is no life without her. What is lost of her must be reclaimed, so create Gaia, preach it, practice it, and keep up to the mantra.
We see that the Gaia Mantra offers what is needed to make us live and let live. Treating everything as Gaia mantra intends, there is no doubt that the human race as the living forms of Gaia, one creator we have the power to make our path amid the ruins around us. The creator deserves exactly what the Mantra preaches, preach the mantra, preach Gaia. She is not definable as she is all, she is anything and everything. Gaia mantra shows us the good way and so good is sure to take place if we practice it.

worldly attachments
The preaching of every religion is same in the notion that they are aimed at betterment of living, especially soul and destruction of the evils that a soul faces. Every being is seen as a spiritual entity. The navkar mantra is one of the best of mantras and one of the most powerful of all the mantras. As a Jain, every person ought to find a way to liberate his soul from the worldly attachments, the longing for enrichment in any physical entity is considered a worldly attachment, and the 'Navkar Mantra' offers exactly that. It's obvious that the navkar mantra is to be felt by the soul when one recites it.
Navkar Mantra: The soul recites!
The knowledge of the linguistic meaning of the Navkar Mantra does not do you any good; it's the soul that has to feel the Navkar mantra. Initially you are bowing to the Arihantas (souls liberated from worldly attachments) with respect felt so atomically by your soul. These are the souls who have mastered the liberation art, liberating themselves from the world.
Next step of navkar mantra soul bows and respects the siddhas, who have liberated themselves completely from the earth, even feelings of beginning or end of life. By bowing to these souls you command your soul to follow their path, with selflessness.
Through the Navkar mantra you offer your respectful bow to the acharyas, who command the spiritual prosperity in this world. Then it's the Upadhyayas, forerunners of sadhus and sadhvis (the souls in the people that have detached from family life and carried onto a new lease of life with great spiritual specifics) that the nakar mantra respects, makes your soul respect.
Ultimately what the Navkar mantra does is to enforce the strong feeling that these bowing must have the impact that sins erased from your soul, evils removed and soul free of any constraints. So finally Navkar mantra acknowledges itself of the service it has offered you and salutes itself as one of the best mantras to take you closer as a jain towards the path of becoming siddha.
Navkar mantra is the bowing to the greater souls, helps you get rid of the evils in the soul as the soul in itself realizes the greatness in the leaders. We have the step towards liberating ourselves from these worldly advantages as the Navkar Mantra makes the soul realize that. Through Navkar Mantra, the soul becomes pure, the person realizes happiness, and not the happiness got from worldly pleasures, but true happiness that is unlike anything felt before. This in turn makes the person move forward in the path aimed by every Jain, towards reaching the Siddha stature.

Chappell brothers
The Australian cricket team played and won their first Test match in 1877 (the rivalry with England took form since then) and the Laureus World Sports Awards 2002 (World Team of the Year) for their test match records rendered them to be the strongest of all cricket teams. Till March 2007, the Australian cricket team played 687 Test matches and won 320 of them; this made them lead the ICC Test Championship table since January 2001. The award of being the first-ranked international one-day cricket team also goes to them as much as the four Cricket World Cups, the last one being the one this year. The team has also been the consecutive winners of 29 World Cup matches; however, from February 19, 2007 to April 6, 2007, the period spelt down phase for them.
Former glories of the Australian cricket team comprise the victory against the (in)famous Bodyline series - the tactics of English captain Douglas Jardine for controlling Don Bradman. The English bowling had been devastated completely by Sir Don during the 1930s; Jardine had used 6 consecutive bouncers reaching head height and over the leg stump and half a dozen fielders around. The success continued till the 1980s - Richie Benaud, the Chappell brothers, Dennis Lillee and Rodney Marsh were the ones on whom the team rested. It was relatively a mediocre period until Allan Border took the charge for captaincy. Arguably, it is in the 1990s that the modern era has its roots in; staying unbeaten in all Ashes series except in 2005 and four World Cups can surely be credited to Border, the successive captains and the several brilliant key players - Glenn McGrath, Shane Warne, Steve Waugh, and Ricky Ponting being four among them. Glenn McGrath, however, had announced earlier his pre-planned retirement from international cricket after the 2007 Cricket World Cup and he played it well. The 2007 Cricket World Cup was all about Aussie domination; 42 wickets and 11 matches is after all a good ratio if compared to the 104 they claimed out of their opponents. Glenn McGrath became the Man of the Series.

going down
There's a difference between learning to play cricket and learning for playing it better than the opposition. So, you may cram up the commercial rule books, master the strokes as they are supposed to be played archaically, but then, if you think learning to play cricket is all about going down to nets, batting for a bit and then tossing around the ball for sometime, then be prepared to play it only at the weekends with your kids.
The process of learning cricket properly often receives a setback due to the lack of a good coach or if the senior players are not helpful. Wrong way of playing gets reinforced with every practice, thus, the only way out is to join a club with a good coaching staff and system for overall good learning, progress and improvements. But the need to develop the skills from the grassroots level is paramount; so are the needs of learning the rules of the game prior to mastering the different kinds of hits and swings. While these take care of the physical agility, mental agility and real time situation-analysis skills can be honed with fantasy cricket. Online cricket games, as they are also known as, gives the chances to get associated with the bigger picture. It is a great way to get connected with game strategies through any of the numerous virtual tournaments and also a wonderful opportunity to try and test one's cricketing knowledge.
There are a total of forty-two laws that the game of cricket involves; they are directed towards the regular players; substitutes and runners; the umpires and the scorers; the ball and the bat; the pitch and the wickets; the bowling, popping and return creases; the preparation and maintenance of the playing area; the innings, and the follow-on; declaration and forfeiture; intervals, game beginning and cessation; field practice; scoring runs; bowling, batting and fielding as well as fair and unfair play.
But there is also something called indoor cricket that varies slightly from the normal cricket rules; indoor cricket comprises rules that are similar but for a few ones. These are regarding the number of overs that are played (16); overs per bowler restricted to 2 while for batsmen it's 4; getting a batsman caught out off the net is prohibited and he loses 5 runs though is allowed to stay in until 4 overs are completed; runs are calculated by hitting to different sections of the court besides scoring them through hit and run and a bowler bowling a no ball or a wide. In case of the last one, two runs are given to the batting side.
