What is TAX? Who are we offering it to? Towards whom are we doing a duty by paying taxes? Tax is a vital part of our lives. It is the duty of an individual or any form of organization to pay tax. The Government asks us to pay tax and its philosophy is pay it yourself, i.e. voluntarily. While there are many actions of the Government that seem to be imposing a tax regime, but the core of the philosophy is a self declaration of duty. In terms of a philosophy tax is a duty. But it is a duty towards whom? Is it a duty towards the Government, is it is duty towards the poor, is it a duty towards the development of the country? There are many opinions on the matter as to whom are we doing a duty towards. But I have a clear and concise answer that eradicates all confusion. Tax is a duty towards our soul. The Soul of a person or a body of people craves a payment of tax for the huge benefits they enjoy of being part of a nation. Being part of a group of people, called the nation, is a matter of very big excitement and our soul feels happy when we pay tax. Many people hide paying taxes and shirk from it; others avoid it and don’t disclose tax liability. Well it is an injury to the soul if you do all that . The soul feels happy and relieved to pay taxes. So the next time you pay a tax, think that is your soul which wants to, and feels relieved. Perhaps nobody feels so happy as much as your own soul when you pay a tax. Tax is a duty towards your soul. Can you trick your soul?
