This is quite strange that he is suggesting to stop pursuing external achievements after he himself pursuing these things successfully, as Gautama the Buddha had enjoyed the comforts of his life in the kingdom and palaces and got bored with everything.

He tries to tear down God too. He even becomes angry with God, feeling , “There is so much poverty in the world, so where is your God? what God are you talking about? If there is so much pain and suffering in the world, God cannot exist.” He has tried to erase God.
