spiritual integrity

Moral and sacred

Spiritual integrity is consistency between one's inner beliefs and outward actions, particularly regarding matters of faith, conscience, or personal values.

Someone with spiritual integrity lives according to their convictions rather than compromising them for convenience or social pressure: She refused the promotion because accepting it would have violated her spiritual integrity.

The phrase implies wholeness—an undivided self where belief and behavior align.
