Kushagra Kumar: Reprogramming Human Cognition with Science and Ancient Wisdom

Varanasi, India, May 23, 2025: Meet Kushagra Kumar, a cognitive coach, data scientist, and modern-day mentalist whose journey with human psychology began at an early age. By 14, he was already decoding aerodynamics and complex scientific concepts, while securing 2nd place at the prestigious NSS Gerald competition (NASA, 2009) for his project Griham, competing against students from over 70 countries.

A former RMO winner and an  ISI Alumni, Kushagra’s early exposure to sophisticated scientific concepts and background in engineering complements his understanding of human interaction and his psyche. 

As an overachiever, he wears many hats—data scientist, mentalist, hypnotherapist, and, most importantly, cognitive programmer. He guides his clients through cognitive coaching that includes practising mindfulness, overall wellness, and the ability to go beyond one’s “perceived limits.” 

“As a data scientist, I program AI. As a mentalist, I program minds,” he says — a line that perfectly captures Kushagra’s dual mastery of artificial and human intelligence.

Kushagra offers personalized workshops for schools to guide young minds in enhancing their cognitive abilities and mental output. By helping them focus on real-world performance that ensures success by working the smart way.  These workshops are tailored for individuals and professionals who want to discover their mental clarity, control, and awareness. 

Kushagra continues to engage with a large following of over 18,000 on Instagram, a growing community of seekers and learners. He contributes significantly to humanitarian efforts and government initiatives all across the globe. Currently backing humanitarian initiatives in Indonesia, serving humanity without boundaries.

In a world of quick hacks, poor attention spans, and short-lived motivation, Kushagra strengthens his clients’ cognitive abilities by using his knowledge and exposure to significant events to truly rewire their own minds.
