“Faith is the basis of the path, the mother of virtue; it nourishes all sorts of goodness.”
Every word uttered by sages of yore as expedient methods were medicines given in accordance with particular ailments — when was there ever any actual dogma to bind people? If you are confused, there are a thousand differentiations, ten thousand distinctions. If you are enlightened, everything is the same one family.
Wu-chien (fl.ca.1265–1300) from Thomas Cleary's book, Teachings of Zen page 145
