How did the Patil's suffering in his dreams lead to his healing and devotion as detailed in Chapter 13?

Chapter 13 recounts the strange experience of a Patil who suffered greatly in his dreams. In one dream, a teacher broke his back with a cane, and in another, a gentleman crushed his chest with a grinding stone. Despite the agony, which made him feel like his life was ending, the Patil woke up to find his disease had vanished completely and his mind felt an unprecedented freshness. As detailed in the chapter, he realized that the 'punishment by the cane and the bursting of the heart' had a clearly beneficial result. This miraculous cure filled him with immense joy and gratitude, leading him to place his head at Baba's feet in complete surrender, recognizing this was a favor he could never repay.
