This is a half-truth. In reality it was about both physical and spiritual transmutation. The physical is a reflection of the spiritual. The microcosmos of the body (of a mineral, plant, animal, or human) is a reflection of the macrocosmos of the world. People that don't get that have no business in this discussion. If I would be schizo about it I would say this half-truth is spread out of maliciousness instead of ignorance, as decoupling the physical and spiritual makes it very easy to psychologicalize or flat out dismiss spirituality, or cancerous dualism.
