---Advaita refers to non-dual awareness, not outer actions. It's 
possible that "A." fellow mentioned before was established in Being 
as in "established in Being, perform action"; which (apparently) can 
be a co-existing state along being a sexual pervert.
 There are those who would question MMY's level of Awareness by 
virtue of his outer actions, going back to the 70's.  Baba Ram Dass 
(Dr. Richard Alpert) had serious doubts about MMY's level of 
Consciousness due to MMY's apparent attachement to $$.  Ram Dass 
said..."He's still attached".  Sorry, Ram Dass, you're confusing the 
two types of attachment.
