As narrated in Chapter 0, Kashiram, a cloth seller, was attacked by Bhil robbers while returning from a market. The incident reveals his unique priorities and immense faith. The robbers tried to steal a small bundle, thinking it contained treasure, but it only held powdered sugar. Kashiram was carrying this sugar to feed ants, following the advice of a saint named Janakidas Baba. Because the bundle was very dear to him, he fought back, but was struck with an axe and left for dead. The most telling detail, recounted in Chapter 0, is that upon regaining consciousness, he refused to go to a hospital. Instead, he insisted, 'Take me to Shirdi,' demonstrating his absolute and unwavering faith in Maharaj for his healing.
