Answer:

Explanation:

The Bhakti movement refers to the Hindu devotional trend that emerged from Tamil Nadu [1] and later acted as the de facto catalyst to the formation and subsequent revolutionization in the form of Sikhism.[2] It originated in eighth-century Tamil Nadu (now Tamil Nadu and Kerala), and spread northwards.[1] It swept over east and north India from the 15th century onwards, reaching its zenith between the 15th and 17th century CE.[3]

The Bhakti movement regionally developed around different gods and goddesses, and some sub-sects were Vaishnavism (Vishnu), Shaivism (Shiva), Shaktism (Shakti goddesses), and Smartism.[4][5][6] Bhakti movement preached using the local languages so that the message reached the masses.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.[7][8]

The movement has traditionally been considered as an influential social reformation in Hinduism, and provided an individual-focused alternative path to spirituality regardless of one's birth or gender.[3] Postmodern scholars question this traditional view and whether the Bhakti movement ever was a reform or rebellion of any kind.[9] They suggest Bhakti movement was a revival, reworking and recontextualisation of ancient Vedic traditions.[10]

Yes, I think the changes in social conditions contribute to the development of many religious movements like bhakti, Sufi and Sikhism.

Explanation:

  • The genesis of religious movements lies in social evils that were prevalent in the then society. Social anomalies were much more in focus during those days which became ultimately the reasons of the rise of many religious movements.
  • The rigidity of caste system, rituals, blind faith, and social dogmas started making homes of insecurity in the poet’s saints and also people. They tried to change the norms of the evil prevailing in society by indulging themselves in religious movements.
