Well, first to say, it can happen. The perfected man is invulnerable to all attack - how we should be... then our ego selves go and mess it all up.
Many ego centered actions and ego derived emotions, principally fear, are involved in weakening these defences and inviting attack.
The higher you get - the brighter your light shines - and the more kudo's available to those on the other path to you for taking you down.
Purity, courage, love - all these things will hold you free from harm.
The methods of attack are many and varied - its best to do some reading and it takes a lot of words to even scratch the surface. That alternative is not to worry about it too much, let your intuition (heart) guide you, ask for protection and guidance, ask for understanding, meditate, live as pure life as you can, and you will be all right mate.
Physical purity is very worthwhile pursuing to help improve it and remove some of the basic attack vectors (assuming you even can be - see above).
Clean diet, clean living, drinking lots of water, giving your body/mind enough sleep time, the occasional purifying de-tox fasting etc.
Go in peace, guided, blessed and protected by the love and the light of the one infinite creator.
