Rituals can be discovered through the main story quests, such as going to speak with Leshy in Anura, where he will request Menticide Mushrooms in exchange for the Brainwashing Ritual. Other than that, most of them are discovered through unlocking new Doctrines as you progress.
This Cult of the Lamb guide will detail every available Ritual in the game, including their requirements and materials, as well as their effects. Don’t worry, the price isn’t your soul — yet.
