Buddha dealing with pain

You may not bother raining. But you are still wet walking in a rain.

All people can see is you are wet, but they cannot conclude that you are bothered by rain solely from the fact that you are wet.

And Buddhism is a way to let you not bother raining, not a magic to let you walking in a rain and keeping yourself dry.

Because focusing on dismissing the physical pain would distract him from providing his best lesson.

Enlightened beings are not bothered by pain. But if you try to sit through severe back pain, it could lead to further complications. The body requires lying down to recover from back problems. So it's the sensible thing to do. When the Buddha is resting, he usually resides in the Jhanas. Even when the Buddha is not resting, it is said that he enters the Jhanas between every sentence he speaks.
