Detailed Solution

Shiva, Vishnu and Durga were worshipped in Bhakti.
With the beginning of the Bhakti era, people started worshipping deities like Shiva, Vishnu and Goddess Durga, which in later periods became a prominent feature in Hinduism. The definition of bhakti states that any person, rich or poor, man or woman, low or high caste, can follow the path of devotion. They can do so through devotion to any deity of their choice. Bhakti promoted devotion to a God while discouraging sacrifices in their name. Bhagavad Gita also mentions the idea of bhakti. Bhakti made people believe that if any person worships the God and the Goddess with great devotion, then God would bless them with what they desire.
