For himself but not 'for himself in the light of what he has learned'. Whatever is kept will contaminate the new that comes because we will tend to us it to interpret what is happening.

If you do a little research markings you will see that the Buddha did not throw away everything from his former religion.
Buddha's teachings contain many ancient Vedic beliefs.
