The important functions of peoples’ spiritual cultures are the formation and maintenance of
socio-cultural integrity, transfer of spiritual traditions, upbringing of individuals, their protection
from destructive influences, including religious ones. Protecting people’s spiritual culture, the state
encourages them to religious tolerance. Meanwhile, imposed, alien to the people religious innovations
cause significant harm to the spiritual health of the nation, destroy the natural harmonious state of
the personality, his spiritual, mental and physical world. They are in confrontation with the spiritual
meanings of national cultures. The introduction of alien religious innovations into traditional confessions
may deal with changes in the national foundations of the society’s cultural basis and be a factor of
modern geopolitics. Hence, more than ever, research on regional religious innovations is relevant.
