Abhinav Arora, a ten-year-old boy from Mathura, has become widely recognized as “Bal Sant Baba” for his spiritual journey and teachings at a very young age. Gaining popularity on social media, he has garnered a following of over 900,000 on platforms like Instagram. Known as one of India’s youngest spiritual speakers, Abhinav has shared content deeply rooted in Hindu philosophy, including teachings on Vedas and Upanishads, which has captivated a vast audience. His reputation as a young spiritual figure even earned him recognition from Central Minister Nitin Gadkari, as noted on his Instagram profile.
Abhinav sees Lord Krishna as his “younger brother” and frequently blesses people with greetings like “Radhe Radhe” and “Jai Shri Krishna.” According to Abhinav, his spiritual journey began when he was only three years old, reflecting his deep commitment to living a spiritually inclined life.
Recently, however, Abhinav faced backlash when a video of him dancing at a religious procession went viral on social media, drawing criticism. His guru, Swami Ramabhadracharya, reportedly condemned the act, which caused the video to receive even more widespread attention. In response, Abhinav expressed remorse and accepted his guru’s rebuke gracefully.
Now, Abhinav has reportedly received a death threat from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, a notorious criminal group. This shocking development has led his parents to file a complaint with the Mathura police, emphasizing that Abhinav has done nothing wrong and has only been focused on his spiritual work. His mother, Jyoti Arora, expressed their concerns, stating that their family has been receiving threats despite Abhinav’s purely devotional pursuits.
Additionally, his parents allege that certain YouTubers and social media users have been defaming and trolling the family online, violating their privacy and subjecting them to psychological distress. In light of these allegations, they have filed a case with the judiciary, urging action against those responsible for spreading malicious content about their family.
The Mathura police have since launched an investigation into the threats and the family’s concerns. Abhinav’s rise as a young spiritual figure has brought him into the national spotlight, and while he has garnered respect for his spiritual message, the threats and criticisms he faces highlight the challenges that accompany such a public role at such a young age.
