Akhay Kumar Mozumdar (July 15, 1881 – March 9, 1953) was an Indian American spiritual writer and teacher associated with the New Thought Movement in the United States.

[1] The son of an attorney, Mozumdar was born in a small village about twenty miles north of Calcutta, India.

"[6] In 1913, Mozumdar became a US citizen after having convinced the Spokane district judge that he was in fact Caucasian and thereby met the requirements of naturalization law then restricting citizenship to "free white persons.

Ten years after being granted citizenship, however, as a result of the US Supreme Court decision in United States v. Bhagat Singh Thind, stipulating that no person of East Indian origin could become a naturalized United States citizen, Mozumdar's citizenship was revoked.

He remained in the United States until his death in San Diego in 1953,[9] and he was buried at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, California.
