While Kashiram was fighting for his life against thieves, what was happening with Maharaj in Shirdi?

In a remarkable display of spiritual connection, Maharaj was creating a scene in Shirdi at the exact time Kashiram was fighting the thieves. As detailed in Chapter 0, he was shouting, swearing, and showing other signs of intense agitation. The people nearby, familiar with his ways, immediately understood that a dear devotee was in grave danger. They recognized that Maharaj's agitation was his way of actively protecting that devotee. The text notes that it was impossible for Kashiram to escape on his own, but with Maharaj as the 'Savior,' he was protected from harm.
