Title: The phenomenon of falun gong in the context of development of anti-totalitarian tendencies in religious culture of ukrainians 
Abstract: The study of Falun Dafa phenomenon in the context of the essential opposition of the religious culture of Ukrainians to the aggressive religious rhetoric of racist totalitarianism in the conditions of russia’s war against Ukraine and the related transformations of the Ukrainian community is relevant. During the analysis, it was found that acquaintance with Chinese culture through the study of the non-traditional religious movement Falun Gong encourages Ukrainian scientists and young students to recognize the existence of strong totalitarian tendencies in the activities of the Chinese authorities and the Chinese Communist Party. Aggressive policy of the totalitarian government is reprehensible and encourages condemnation of practices of persecution for religious beliefs. The necessity of opposition from the side of neo-religious organizations to manifestations of state totalitarianism is concluded. In the conditions of military resistance to racism, this is a confirmation of the need to confront the totalitarian aggressor
