Apparently those who follow the Buddhist path can “not strive” according to them.

I appreciate it when you quote things, because then I see how you are misunderstanding what you read. That quote says the Buddha worked for social justice, against the caste system. The legend is, he was raised in an isolated and privileged environment and he went out and learned that there was poverty and suffering, he began to study how the world worked and why such conditions existed. Your mind is your own, and also you are the product of the conditioning of culture. Buddhism is about accepting that human condition, and using your mind to leave a better world behind. I know it’s a paradox, both acceptance and change, but that is what it is to be human.
