I believe he came to his senses and resolved that this mutual prapanca society was not conducive to the spiritual path.
To paraphrase Marlon Brando, "The only reason I'm here is that I don't yet have the moral courage to turn down the prapanca."

There is no suffering to be severed. Ignorance and klesas are indivisible from bodhi. There is no cause of suffering to be abandoned. Since extremes and the false are the Middle and genuine, there is no path to be practiced. Samsara is nirvana. No severance achieved. No suffering nor its cause. No path, no end. There is no transcendent realm; there is only the one true aspect. There is nothing separate from the true aspect.

In a way, there might be a metaphor in there...
