For the Nambu--Jona--Lasinio (NJL) model in the proper time regularization scheme the chiral soliton is investigated for the case of three flavors within the framework of the bound state approach to strangeness. For this purpose meson fluctuations off the non--strange soliton are considered. For the kaon P--wave channel the emerging Bethe--Salpeter equation is solved yielding the bound state energy and wave--function. This kaon bound state also induces a strange valence quark wave--function. Collective coordinates are introduced for the SU(2) isorotations and the coupling of the bound state to these rotations is determined. The total spin is decomposed into parts carried by the soliton and the bound state. The absolute value of the former is identical to the total isospin while the latter is demonstrated to be identical to the expectation value of the grand spin, the sum of spin and isospin. The functional trace involves quark states with various grand spins which get polarized by the kaon bound state. This polarization results in a normalization of the coupling between the collective rotation and the bound state different from the Skyrme model. Nevertheless after quantization the expression for the baryon masses can be cast into the form found by Callan and Klebanov for the Skyrme model. Numerical results for the baryon spectrum are compared to those obtained in the same model using the collective approach of Yabu and Ando. It is found that for $\frac{1}{2}^+$ baryons the bound state treatment reproduces the experimental data better than the collective approach while there are only small differences between the two approaches for the $\frac{3}{2}^+$ baryons. Both treatments underestimate the mass splittings for baryons with different strangeness. This short-coming is conjectured to be inherited from the meson sector of the NJL model where too small a ratio of the kaon and pion decay constants is predicted.
