What does a guy saying he is in monk mode mean?

It might mean he is avoiding internet for mindfulness and clutter detox purposes - I’ve wanted to do an internet detox for a long time but I was worried my career would suffer if I cut productivity for a full 24 hours

If used properly, it means he intends to spend time in isolation for the purposes of introspection and improvement. But guys sometimes use it to mean that they are avoiding relationships for a period of time, so it is best to get clarification from him.

he's choosing to relax and getting away from the harsh realities of life but somehow people are going to twist this into some terrible shit to fit their agenda

It means that he's unwilling to face the realities of life, and prefers to loaf around at home, doing some monky business.

I'm hardly up on the latest slang, but I've usually heard that to mean he's avoiding romantic entanglements of any kind.

it means you need to ask him to clarify

He’s a buddhist?
