Really a very good creative topic for discussion. What I believe is that in today's world even deaths & taxes are also uncertain. As one never no when death comes and as the central power changes the taxation polices also becomes uncertain.
This uncertainty in today's world is due to our self centred thinking. One thinks of his/her own self, as student are thinking of being placed just for money, Political parties are more concerned about their probability of getting more votes. Parents are concerned only for the success of their own children through any means & finally we all are fighting to maintain peace among our own countries no matter what happens to the environment who created this whole world.
Today's world could become stable & certain but for that we all have to be open minded in spite of narrow minded. We all should be one instead of many.
Thank you.

Hi friends.
I am happy goyal. As we know that nothing is not stable in this world. But we can't look only one side of the world. Suppose if we have not any aim our life would be a waste. Without aim &any job everything useless. We should not think about this everything Is unstable. We should do work with full zeal&enthusiasm.
Because we have to do something for yourself & create a name for our services just like APJ Abdul Kalam and Steve Jobs.
Because these names are suitable for their services which cannot forget. According to me, we shouldn't think about stability. Because, this thinking kill the hope & confidence.

Yes this is true when we talk about today's world, today nothing is there on which we can beleive upon, all is uncertain. But this is also a contradiction in case of some things and people. "when there are bad things there are also good things". There is certainity in case of our families our loved ones. "and no doubt death and tax are certain ". Certainty and uncertainity are related to each other in the same way as that of "good and bad things". "fake and real things". "beleivable and unbeleivable things". So in today's era. Fake, unbeleivable, bad and "uncertainity" is having a greater proporation in cmparasion to certainty.

Good Morning Friends,
Yeah, Obviously, In today's world everything is uncertain. Everything will happen anytime. We cannot expect anything. But death and taxes are certain things. Today's technology will develop our future. It going to be a unthinkable environment. It will helpful for people.
But also it will lose our confidence, discipline, time, self-motivation. Everything is a magical process in our life. So it will not clear about what is going to happen. Every day creates new technology and new things and also new problems.
So we can overcome the problems and new things onwards. We are going towards success.

First one is the rule of nature, in which every creature of world abides/bind to follow the rule. No one can escape from this rule. It means it is certain, at some point of your life, you must have to die but it is uncertain that when it come, and where?
In second case tax.
An amount we pay to government, as per the rule,
Here we also abide to follow this rule, but the diff is that we can escape from this situation by doing fraud by going against the rule. But in case of death, there is no escape plane. Tax is also uncertain with time (it may increase or decrease in sense of pay scale).

Yes, I agree.
Death is certain, If you have born in this world certainly you will die one day. Tax is also certain, Government will certainly take tax. But except these two things, nothing is certain in this world whether it is your job, your friends, love, success, failure nothing is certain.
But I want to talk also form Vedas and Sastra. According to that what is happing with you is pre-decided by God. We are only the toy of god and playing our role in this stage of the world that's it. It is written in Bhagvat Gita itself.

I agree that in this world only two things are certain death & taxes. Death is the low of nature, everyone who gets a life is sure to die. Taxes is the income of our country, which is coming year by year. This is working as a medicine for our economic.
Certain things are interdependent on each other according to Times India if every rich person in India pay tax correctly more than half of the poverty can be reduced so everyone should do these two things perfectly so these are certain.

Death is certain no one can avoid it. If we are born on this planet we have to get perish with time that is inevitable. Like wise when we are born in a country we are the citizens of that country and we need to contribute something from our earnings to the govt for the development of our own nation. So paying taxes is also certain. So the matter in question that in today's world everything is uncertain except death and taxes is a true one and I agree with it. Thank you.

Death and taxes are certain because the people who are living have to do this both. And all other things are uncertain as they are not compulsory in the world but this.

Yes of course, I agree world is certain about two things one is death and another one is tax. Both tax and death are we can't able to avoid. Both were decided by rulers which means tax is decided by govt and death is decided by god. In earning days we doesn't pay tax means we will punish by government In old days we will not reach death means we will punish by ourself. So these two things were certain.
