Bhakti means complete submission to God. The development of

century. The cult is the combined result of the teachings of
various saints who had their own views, but the ultimate basis
of the cult was a general awakening against useless religious
practices and unnecessary strictness. The cult also emerged as a
strong platform against casteism. The word Sufi means wool.
The preachers from Arabia wore wool to protect themselves
from dust winds. The Sufi movement is believed to have begun
in Persian countries against the highly puritan Islamic culture.
Later, it spread into India and adopted various things like yogic
postures, dance and music into it, and turned itself into a
pantheistic movement. Both Sufism and Bhakti cult were out-
of-the-box thoughts on religion. They were mainly against the
common religious views, and most importantly, they both were
