Why was Kashiram willing to risk his life for a small bundle of powdered sugar when he was being robbed?

Kashiram's fierce defense of the small bundle reveals the depth of his piety. As explained in the account from Chapter 0, that bundle contained powdered sugar. It was not valuable in a material sense, but it was very dear to him because he was following the advice of another saint, Janakidas Baba, who had told him to feed sugar to ants. For Kashiram, protecting this bundle was about upholding his sacred vow, a principle he valued more than his other possessions and even his own safety. This act demonstrates his unwavering commitment to his spiritual duties.
