In the thesis the concept of the spiritual essence of man as the active integrity of the individual in society in the system of philosophical and religious ideas of V. Zenkovsky is analysed for the first time. Considering a wide range of thematic ideas of the problem of studying the phenomenon of man, the author proposes for the first time a complex of theoretical and methodological approaches to the formation of a single philosophical and religious structure, which combines the functioning of two system projects - social and divine, and the process of their implementation and the method of organic combination provides a mechanism of conceptualization integral human being and personality: It includes the realization of the relationship between God and man on the principles of spirituality and freedom of the will, thus ensuring the appearance of an active whole personality as the basis for the formation of a holistic social system.)Realization of the ideal project focuses our attention on the study of ethical and anthropological integrity of man in the philosophical theism of V. Zenkovsky. It depends on the theoretical justification of the spiritual structure concept , the attribute of which is the openness to the outside world, and the very constitution of man consists of the spirit, the very life and the principles of personality. These constants have a special ontological function: the spirit represents the immediate goal of existential self-realization, and the welcoming level of the body and the "I" determine the way of existence of the spirit, as it manifests itself, but such a living space has a socio-historical character, therefore, the collective "I" becomes a compulsory component for understanding the existence of man in different historical epochs and cultures. One of the basic approaches in the educational process is the "principle of symphony", which intensifies the intense dialogue between "I" and culture, it helps to establish the internal integrity of the subject. It was proved that on the basis of the symphonic principle mechanism there is a constant change in the functions of various directions of the educational process, which alternately gives priority to either physical education, or the aesthetic or intellectual sphere, etc. However, there is a constant interaction between them, a harmonic transition from one component , which for some time led the main party, to another one, the palette is constantly changing, everything happens as in the harmonious orchestra creative process . The indicated basic provisions of the dissertation prove the uniqueness of the social state potential in the process of life-creating formation of the individual, therefore, it is necessary to ensure the conditions for a free civil choice, freedom of activity and unity as a person persistence around the spiritual centre.
