I am using a Rapid Strike Style Urshifu from the new DLC. What I want to know is how much damage Surging Strikes would do while holding a Sea Incense with 383 atk. I'm sorry I do not understand the calculation method.

Why Spinda though? This question was sorta impossible to answer because it didn’t specify on the Pokémon getting hit
Honestly just want to know against 1x effective pokemon. that would give me a better idea on the damage
If you want a precise damage calculation, then you need to name a specific Pokemon and include its EVs, nature, IVs and level, plus specify Urshifu's level. All of those factors are relevant to the process.
I think the only missing variables are your Urshifu's level and the target's defense stat. The target's species, level, and other stats (usually) have no effect on damage.
Then lets base it off of a Galarian Slowbro with 250 Def. (both level 100)

damage = ((((2 + (2 * level / 5)) * power * attack) / (defense * 50)) + 2) * modifier * random
Power is 25 * 1.2 because it's holding a sea incense.
Modifier is STAB * critical, which is 1.5 * 1.5.
Random is between 0.85 and 1.
damage > ((((2 + (2 * 100 / 5)) * 25 * 1.2 * 383) / (250 * 50)) + 2) * 1.5 * 1.5 * 0.85 = 77
damage < ((((2 + (2 * 100 / 5)) * 25 * 1.2 * 383) / (250 * 50)) + 2) * 1.5 * 1.5 = 92
