🌸 About Explore Ikigai
One Couple’s Lifelong Journey of Love, Loss, and Legacy
👣 Who Are We?
We are an ordinary couple walking an extraordinary path.
Not because we planned it — but because life demanded it.
Years ago, we were a complete family: husband, wife, daughter, and son.
Our daughter found love across the ocean and made a new home in America.
Our son, brave and brilliant, silently struggled with bipolar disorder for years. At 27, he took his own life.
That day shattered everything we knew.
But it also awakened something sacred — a calling to live fully, serve deeply, and heal purposefully.
🌅 Why We Created Explore Ikigai
In our deepest pain, we discovered a new path:
A life not based on festivals or rituals, but on meaning, mindfulness, and mission.
We stopped celebrating traditional holidays like Dashain.
Instead, we chose to travel — inward and outward.
We created this platform as:
A memorial of love
A bridge between cultures
A map for long, purposeful living
And a gift to the world
🎯 What Drives Us
We believe:
Pain can become purpose.
Grief can give birth to greatness.
A life lived in service is a life well-lived.
We have a 41-year timeline ahead — broken into 5-year phases.
Each phase includes:
Transformational travel (Nepal, India, and global destinations)
Social service projects (hospitals, homes, healing centers)
Personal wellness rituals (fasting, meditation, Ikigai-based living)
Creative contributions (audio scripts, books, blogs, and peace work)
Our goal is to live long, serve more, and celebrate our 100th birthday with pride, peace, and poetic purpose.
🌱 Why the Name “Explore Ikigai”?
Because we’re not teaching.
We’re not preaching.
We are exploring — with open hearts, open minds, and open hands.
And we invite you to explore alongside us.
🫶 This Space Is For You If You:
Feel deeply, love truly, and dream endlessly.
Want to live long — not just in years, but in meaning.
Seek healing through service, travel, and silence.
Are ready to transform your pain into peace.
💌 Come, walk with us.
Let’s explore your Ikigai, and co-create a life story worth remembering.
🌟 Our Mission
A Life Lived Fully. A World Served Gently.
At Explore Ikigai, our mission is both deeply personal and universally human.
It began with one man who turned unbearable grief into healing.
And it continues as a quiet movement — for every soul seeking meaning, depth, and a legacy that matters.
🌍 Our Core Mission
To live a 100-year life guided by purpose, presence, and service —
and to empower others across the world to do the same through mindful travel, soul-centered storytelling, and compassionate contribution.
We exist to serve:
The soul numbed by routine
The heart grieving in silence
The elder forgotten in the rush
The seeker who still believes in becoming
🧭 Our Guiding Principles
🌱 Ikigai at the Center
Everything we do flows from the timeless Japanese wisdom of Ikigai —
the reason you wake up in the morning.
We believe every person, at any age, can discover their own.
✈️ Healing through Travel
Travel is not a luxury. It is medicine.
Our journeys are designed as spiritual pilgrimages —
from the farthest mountains to the innermost self.
🕊️ Legacy through Service
We are building temples of compassion:
Meditation & wellness sanctuaries
Elder care homes with dignity
Community hospitals with heart
Audio guides that awaken the inner world
One powerful life story written for generations to come
🤍 Compassion Over Perfection
We are not here to impress.
We are here to inspire —
with a quiet heart, a steady step, and a clear purpose.
🌐 From Personal to Planetary
What began in one quiet home in Nepal
is now a global call to live more fully,
love more deeply,
and give more generously.
Explore Ikigai.
Not to escape life —
but to embrace it.
