What specific consequences did devotees face if they disobeyed Sai Baba's instructions about leaving Shirdi?

Chapter 9 provides several vivid examples of the troubles faced by devotees who failed to follow Sai Baba's orders regarding their departure. The text mentions that those who acted outside of his instructions suffered greatly on their journey. Some were even looted by thieves, an experience they were said to remember for a lifetime. In other instances, those who left in a hurry without eating as instructed, found that there was no carriage available for them, leaving them stranded and hungry. These stories, detailed in Chapter 9, serve as cautionary tales about the importance of heeding the Guru's words precisely for one's own welfare.
