The Bhakti movement refers to the theistic devotional trend that emerged in medieval
Hinduism and later revolutionised in
Sikhism. It originated in the eighth-century
Tamil south India (now parts of Tamil Nadu and
Kerala), and spread northwards. It swept over east and north India from the 15th century onwards, reaching its zenith between the 15th and 17th century CE.
The Bhakti movement regionally developed around different gods and goddesses, such as
Vaishnavism (Vishnu), Shaivism (Shiva),
Shaktism (Shakti goddesses), and Smartism . The movement was inspired by many poet-saints, who championed a wide range of philosophical positions ranging from theistic dualism of Dvaita to absolute monism of
Advaita Vedanta .
