What was Sai Baba's spiritual lesson in telling Kashiram to protect the bundle of sugar from thieves, even at the risk of his own life?

This question is based on a slight misinterpretation of the events described. The provided texts in Chapter 0 do not state that Sai Baba instructed Kashiram to protect the bundle of sugar. Kashiram's decision to fight the robbers was his own, driven by his devotion to an instruction he received from a different saint, Janakidas Baba, who had told him to feed sugar to ants. Therefore, Kashiram's fierce defense of the bundle was a testament to his commitment to that saint's advice. While Sai Baba was his primary guru, this specific action was inspired by Janakidas Baba's guidance.
