Complete answer:
Let us discuss Bhakti movement. Alvars were Tamil poets who worshiped and devoted to Lord Vishnu and his avatars. They lived as saints. They were linked to Vaishnavism. Nayanars were also Tamil poetic saints who worshiped and devoted to Lord Shiva. They were linked to Shaivism. There were several leaders in the religion. Hindus started a Bhakti movement in the eighteenth century. It was led by Alvars and Nayanars. There were sixty three Nayanars and twelve Alvars . They belonged to different caste societies. They preached about the god and goddess in the local language through stories and poems . They were against the caste system and also against the dominance of Brahmans . The importance of the traditions of the Alvars and Nayanars was sometimes indicated by the claim that their compositions were as important as the Vedas.

Let us discuss the nirmohi. Nirmohi was a group of Hindu people denomination without attachment. It was established by Ramananda.We will discuss the Chishti silsila. It was also known as Chisti order. It was Sufi order within Sufi tradition of Islam. It originated in Chisti, in the tenth century.
