Question

How were the religious practices under the Bhakti Movement different from the Vedic period​

Answer 1

In detailing the differences between Vedic and later Hindu religion, one inevitably runs into the problem of trying to pin down exactly what these traditions entail, as they are both fluid, and ever-changing systems. As Hopkins states, "The Brahmanical system had never been static. The Vedic texts reflect a dynamic process of growth and innovation from the early hymn collections through the Brahmanas, Aranyakas, and Upanishads."1 We cannot, in the space provided, be exhaustive in our approach to this comparison, and must rely upon generalities which, due to their incompleteness, must inevitably involve inaccuracies.
