The Buddha's original teachings were more principally focused on the nature of mind and how to escape it by seeing it as essentially illusory. That is, escaping 3D by seeing it as an illusion that results in suffering. Of course, escaping 3D means going into 4D.
Later in Mahayana it became understood that one cannot attain enlightenment separately from other beings, and that helping liberate all sentient beings became a central element of Buddhism, both in life and after becoming a Bodhisattva, after which one would reincarnate with the goal of helping liberate others (a wanderer).
