I think it was in a philosophy class. Or else it was somewhere online. But, from my understanding, that was more the way Hinduism described it than he did. But on the other hand, other people say he was merely laying out a different way to attain it, not a different destination.
I also remember reading of a particular sect of monks that would practice being detached from those suffering right in front of them. But then, every religion has its bad moments. In the grand scheme of things, I think that's a lot less worse than other things that have gone on.
