The article describes the author's personal experience in the study of semantic mimicry in syncretic religious organizations, gives an example of the study of mimicry in the Mikhailovsky Monastery, operating on the territory of the Penza diocese, and the peculiarities of adapting this organization to the conditions of existence in different periods of its activity.
