D
Correct answer
Explanation
Bhagavatism (or Bhagavata religion) was a religious tradition centered on the worship of Vishnu, particularly in his form as Bhagavan (the Lord). It emphasized devotion (bhakti) to Vishnu and his incarnations like Krishna. This tradition flourished from the late Vedic period through the Gupta era and laid the groundwork for later Vaishnavism. Siva (option A) is associated with Shaivism, a different tradition. Bhagvati (option B) typically refers to the goddess or Durga in Shaktism. Skanda (option C) is the war god, son of Shiva, not central to Bhagavatism.
