Can you explain the divine leela involving Kashiram's wealth and Maharaj's requests for Dakshina?

The leela, or divine play, involving Kashiram's wealth was a profound spiritual lesson from Maharaj designed to remove an obstacle to his progress. According to Chapter 0, Kashiram developed an attachment to the act of giving Dakshina, feeling upset if Maharaj didn't take money from him. This fostered a subtle pride that he had the 'power to give.' To correct this, Maharaj arranged for Kashiram to face financial hardship and then started a 'barrage of demanding Dakshina.' As Chapter 0 explains, this forced Kashiram to borrow until he had nothing left, leading him to the crucial realization that he did not have the power to give. Once this pride was removed, his anxiety vanished and his financial condition improved.
