Okay, bad link. The short pamphlet is here.
The idea behind a meta-study is not to provide precepts in the first place. Things like rules of conduct and specific doctrines (the meaning of "precepts") are derived from orientation, and meta is all about the orientation. I do write about my own precepts, but that's not something I could summarize briefly. A major part of what I have written over the years is couched in terms of reaction to what the mainstream churches have taught for centuries, and that's a very large body of stuff.
It might serve well if you simply asked more targeted questions about the issues that matter to you. We all come from somewhere in matters of faith.
