What was the significance of Sai Baba's actions in Shirdi while Kashiram was being attacked by thieves?

The significance of Sai Baba's actions in Shirdi during Kashiram's ordeal is profound. As detailed in Chapter 0, while Kashiram was fighting for his life against armed robbers miles away, Maharaj began shouting, swearing, and showing other signs of extreme agitation in the Shirdi Masjid. The people nearby instantly recognized this behavior as a sign that a dear devotee was in grave danger and that Maharaj's agitation was his very method of protecting that person from afar. The text explicitly states this, posing the question, 'what can the killer do against the Savior?' This Leela showed that Baba's protection was not bound by physical distance and that he actively intervened to save his followers from mortal threats.
