Ideas on philosophy, religion, code, and the art of becoming.

Current Projects

From reading apps to AI tools — things I'm building publicly.

One Source — In Progress

"Every religion is a river flowing from the same mountain. The names of the rivers differ, the journey differs — but the ocean is one."

— Basanta Thapa, working manuscript

A book about one supreme source of all creation, how human misunderstanding shaped religions across cultures, and why unity is the only honest path forward.

Building the life
I'm writing about.

I'm Basanta Thapa — from Kathmandu, Nepal. I grew up curious about everything: why people believe what they believe, how habits shape destiny, what it means to truly understand something.

I started learning to code in 2025 — not because I had a clear plan, but because I wanted to build the things living in my head. A reading app. A platform about religious unity. Tools that help people think more clearly.

This website is my public notebook — a place where ideas, code, and questions about existence all live together.

What I Believe

"All religions teach love, sacrifice, and truth. The names of God are just addresses — same destination, different directions."

— Core belief

"Growth is the only non-negotiable. Everything else — wealth, fame, comfort — is secondary to becoming more than you were yesterday."

— Personal philosophy

"Build in public. Write what you're learning. The internet doesn't need more perfect answers — it needs more honest questions."

— On creating

The Story So Far

2020
The Reading Phase Begins
Started reading seriously — Atomic Habits, The Alchemist, philosophy texts. Ideas started connecting in unexpected ways.
2022
Questions About Religion
Growing up in Nepal surrounded by Hinduism, Buddhism, and other traditions — I started seeing patterns, not contradictions.
2023
The Book Idea is Born
The concept for "One Source" emerges — exploring how all religions point toward one supreme truth, distorted by culture and time.
2024
Content Creation Begins
Started documenting ideas on YouTube and Instagram. Found that sharing ideas publicly makes them sharper.
2025
Learning to Code
Picked up HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and React. Built my first project. Realized building is another form of thinking.
2026
Building in Public
This website. The newsletter. The reading app. All of it happening live — with the world watching and encouraging.
