Why does religion change if it is eternal?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Religion is eternal, but its forms are like clouds that change with the winds of culture and time; the essence remains untouched, while the expressions must evolve."

Truth is like water—always the same—but its cup (religion’s form) changes with the people and the times.
Why this matters practically
- Focus on the essence, not labels, rules, or rituals.
- Be flexible: update expressions of faith without betraying truth.
- Discern enlightened guidance from priestly compromises.
