a simple monk

The book "a simple monk" writings on His Holiness The Dalai Lama has a quote from Steven Seagal on page 83:
"Well, one of the dilemmas is that he's the spiritual leader of Tibet and Tibetan Buddhism. Therefore, in many people's minds he should not be a politician, he should be a monk, a simple monk and a spiritual leader. On the same token, this monk has to meet with other political leaders and great economic forces and struggle between two worlds." - Steven Seagal
