Hindu religious teacher (5)
![Ross](/clue/static/ross-mug.min.png)
I believe the answer is:
swami
'hindu religious teacher' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for swami that I've seen before include "Hindu leader" , "Hindu religious instructor" , "How to address Hindu dignitary" , "Hindu holy man" , "Hindu mystic" .)
