A ‘bhagavata’ worshipped God Vasudeva in his five-fold aspects-‘Para’, ‘Vyuha, ‘Vibhava’, ‘Antaryamin’, and ‘Archa’.

The author of the Gita says that Vasudeva was the same as Sankara (Lord Siva), this shows definite attempts at a reapproachment between Shaivism and Bhagavatism.

Bhagavatism is a later development of Brahmanism and is an integral part of Vaisnavism.

Christian religion, to a great extent, influenced the growth of Bhagavatism.
