What's wrong with chasing? The buddha didn't check out after enlightenment, he spent the rest of his life chasing the same thing for others
Absolutely nothing. In fact chasing what I truly want to chase will eventually bring me closer to myself.
> Buddha didn't check out after enlightenment
Buddha is not enlightened until we all are. I used to think he was a different person and I still do, only sometimes :)
This gives me a Mahayana bad taste in my mouth. (THERAVADA PERSPECTIVE)
