Detailed explanation-1: -A monk may be a person who decides to dedicate their life to serving other people and serving God, or to be an ascetic who voluntarily chooses to leave mainstream society and live their life in prayer and contemplation.
Detailed explanation-2: -As you will recall, Benedict lists the four kinds of monks as coenobites, anchorites/hermits, sarabaites, and gyrovagues. He gets this from the Rule of the Master, and the Master (not a Timelord) gets it from Cassian about a century before.
Detailed explanation-3: -Monasticism, or the practice of living as a monk, exists in several religions of the world, including Christianity, Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism, and Buddhism. Monks are not officially a part of Islam or Judaism. However, people of those religions have formed religious communities.
