Tibetan priest or monk (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lama

This clue is a double definition.

'tibetan priest' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'monk' is the second definition.
(as in the Dalai Lama)

(Other definitions for lama that I've seen before include "A Buddist monk in Tibet" , "Tibetan spiritual leader" , "devout Buddhist" , "A Buddhist priest in Tibet (4)" , "Holy man in Tibet" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent and The Times.
