Or perhaps both sides are part of the same illusion.


Crest Jewel provides some insight IMHO.

Even when thoroughly eradicated, a great sense of doership can revive
again and create a hundred different distractions, if it is once dwelt
on again for a moment in the mind, like monsoon rain-clouds driven on
by the wind. 309

One should never permit carelessness in one's adherence to God.
"Carelessness is death" (Mahabharata 5.42.43) says the Master
(Sanatkumara) who was of Brahma's son. 321

Just as the algae cleared off water does not stay off even for a
moment, so illusion obscures the sight of even a wise man whose mind
is outward-directed. 324

==========

While original intentions of spiritual regeneration may have been very
pure and ispiring, by constantly interacting with charming apsaras*
like Jennifer, April and all, as they were in the day, can act like
algae even on the realized. "Carelessness is death". 

*(beautiful damsel of the Kingdom of Heaven ruled by Indra. She tries
to test the steadfastness of a sadhaka by way of temptations. Example,
Apsara Menaka and Rishi Vishwamitra )
