How did Sai Baba protect Kashiram during the robbery incident?

While Kashiram was being attacked by armed Bhil robbers, Sai Baba was simultaneously protecting him from Shirdi. As detailed in Chapter 0, while Kashiram fought the thieves, Maharaj was creating a scene by shouting, swearing, and showing other signs of agitation. The devotees present understood this behavior was a sign that a dear devotee was in great danger and that Maharaj's actions were meant to protect them. The text notes that it would have been impossible for Kashiram to escape alive from the armed thieves on his own, stating "what can the killer do against the Savior?" This illustrates that Maharaj's remote, divine intervention was the true cause of Kashiram's survival.
