Turns out the Dalai Lama isn't on an entirely different astral plane than lots of men. He admits a beautiful woman can turn his head. "Do you ever feel temptation when you see a woman?" Piers Morgan asks his holiness in a CNN interview. "Oh, yes, sometimes I think, 'Oh, this is very nice.' But then thinking: 'Hmm, this is a real job,' then feel, too much problem, too much dirty things, like that." Even while "dreaming of some women, I always remember I'm a monk," he adds.
