‘Enshrined’ is the past tense of the verb enshrine.

 

It means, variously:

 

to place a revered or precious object in an appropriate receptacle,

to preserve a right, tradition, or idea in a form that ensures it will be protected and respected,

to enclose in or as if in a shrine,

to preserve or cherish as sacred,

to enclose, shut in, close in, or surround completely,

to regard with feelings of respect and reverence,

to consider hallowed or exalted or be in awe of,

to give an object or an idea its own protected, revered space - literally or figuratively,

to officially  record  something  such an idea or principle in a document so that it cannot be ignored
