Unlike mere superstition, it functions as skillful means (#upaya), integrating local cultures and supporting the path to #awakening through narrative and metaphor. Here is a brief overview:

#Upaya, or "skilful means", is a core #Mahayana Buddhist concept emphasizing adaptive teaching tailored to individual needs. Rather than fixed doctrine, upaya legitimizes diverse methods and interpretations, prioritizing efficacy in guiding toward awakening over dogmatic consistency.

CW: blasphemy and kink
I know how jacked up we get on Vimalakirti in the West, because he was a layman who went into the brothel and what not.
But he still preached the sinfulness of sex. (According to the text that I do have.) So he still fell short in my book.
Blasphemous!
I much prefer my approach. Enter the brothel, and help my kinky siblings reach the other shore.
Upaya!

Perhaps the insight below apply to most virtues? (It reminds me of the #Buddhist concept of skillful means [#upaya].)
"Maybe endurance is best thought of, then, not as a single, isolatable virtue, but more as a wisely-developed constellation of resources that can be drawn on in times of need, along with the skill to deploy them well."
