The average student of buddhism may at the beginning develop a materialistic mentality that collecting knowledge and wisdom that would slowly get himself closer to achieving enlightment. Advancing on it's studies, he'll discover that this is a misconception. There's nothing to "achieve" and the mentality of progress is a wrong view. People attempt to "achieve" enlightment as if they were attempting to learn to play an instrument or be good at an sport. "I'll achieve Nirvana and then maybe learn some sick floating skills" This is still samsara and couldn't be further from the buddhist view. There's nothing to obtain. The endless search for wisdom and knowledge in attempt to "conquer" by "turning" into something is just more desire, and that's not the point of Buddha's teachings. At least that's what i understood that is the topic adressed here.
