If you are going to consider Sri Aurobindo "the divine incarnate" as is expressed in this account then it would be best to treat his life as a purely religious matter because the history of the Divine is more properly called Religion. It would also be best -and certainly less frustrating for the faithful - just to ignore history because for such supernatural tales mythology will suffice.
