Bilaspur-born MIT Technologist and Entrepreneur Launches Revolutionary Guide to Mental Resilience
Prithvi Raj Banerjee, a distinguished MIT-trained technologist and successful entrepreneur, has released his highly anticipated book, Mindful Thinking, a groundbreaking guide designed to help individuals cultivate focus, calm, and mental resilience in today’s fast-paced digital world.
Born in the historical streets of Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh, Banerjee’s journey is nothing short of extraordinary. From a disciplined upbringing in a home established by his railway-officer grandfather after the Partition, to excelling at IIT-BHU, and ultimately making his mark at the prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Banerjee has always balanced the rigors of academia and technology with deep personal reflection and mindfulness.
“Distraction is everywhere, especially in the hyper-connected tech world,” Banerjee notes. “But the lessons of my hometown and my heritage taught me that true strength lies in cultivating a calm, focused mind. Mindful Thinking is my effort to share that wisdom with the world.”
Through his nonprofit, the MindGym Initiative, Banerjee has been running workshops that blend neuroscience, meditation, and playful exercises to help young people navigate a digital age dominated by constant notifications and endless scrolling. Mindful Thinking, published by Srishti Publishers, distills this mission into a clear, practical, and accessible five-section roadmap. The book offers readers relatable stories, simple exercises, and powerful “mind hacks” that connect ancient wisdom with modern science.
“This book is a call to my hometown of Bilaspur,” Banerjee adds. “No matter where I live, my heart remains in Bilaspur. I hope the youth of my city read this book and discover the power of a focused, calm mind.”
Mindful Thinking is more than just a self-help guide—it is a manual for thriving mentally in the digital age, authored by one of Bilaspur’s most successful global thinkers.
