The document compares life to being a cricket ball that is used in a game. It notes how a cricket ball is sometimes loved and kissed, but also beaten, thrown away, and tossed out when damaged. Similarly in life, people are sometimes loved and successful but also hated, brought down by failure, and relegated when their bodies become tired with age. While teams win and lose, the cricket ball never wins and just keeps getting beaten. In life, people's bodies sometimes win and lose but their souls never win. However, unlike a cricket ball, people have the freedom to quit life's game and join the eternal team of the supreme sport star, Lord Krishna.
