The grouping is defined by the absence of a ritual form rather than by a shared ethic, and its members do not agree with one another. 2DirectoryCategoryWell-attestedPractices 1Learn MoreThe Ethical Practices This group holds ethical practices, the disciplines of right conduct and moral cultivation by which the traditions train character and shape behaviour toward others: the keeping of precepts, the practice of virtue, and the examination of conscience.
