Mussar (morality or discipline, Proverbs 1:2) is the Hebrew name of a Jewish ethical, educational and cultural movement that began in 19th century Eastern Europe. The Mussar Institute, according to its website, seeks to impart “wisdom and tools for character development ground in Torah and the classical Mussar tradition.”
