I've heard a story about a devotee named Kashiram who was attacked by thieves. Could you elaborate on what happened to him and how he was saved?

The story of Kashiram is a remarkable one. According to Chapter 0, he was accosted by thieves who wanted a small bundle he was carrying, which they thought contained treasure but was actually just powdered sugar for ants. Kashiram refused to let it go and ended up fighting the thieves, killing two before being struck with an axe and left unconscious. Despite his severe injuries, he survived. Having full faith in Maharaj, he refused to go to a hospital and insisted on being taken to Shirdi. Once there, Madhavrao Deshpande treated him under Maharaj's instructions, and by Maharaj's grace, he recovered. The source notes that while Kashiram was fighting for his life, Maharaj was creating a scene in Shirdi, which was understood as his method of protecting the devotee from danger.
