I think I know of that 'wrong disciple' who went back and forth and reported as Raman Maharshi’s disparaging in fact dismissive view of the possibility of physical transformation. Effectively, he reports that the Maharshi spoke disparagingly about it, for the simple reason that this world itself is mithyā, illusory, false, and so there is no question of Sri Aurobindo succeeding in his pursuit. But I’ll take Jayantilal’s report seriously. The fact that it did go back to Sri Aurobindo has in it enough credential to be accepted as authentic. I’d therefore still like to examine why “he [Jung] couldn't find much in them”, that those books of Sri Aurobindo were of no avail to him. The phrase implies that Jung did look into those books but failed to find anything useful as far as his work was concerned. This obviously implies a big gap between the two formulations and therefore it could be pertinent as well as worthwhile to see if connecting links can be proposed and established. It could at least be a good academic pursuit although that is not my field. ~ RYD
