What are the similarities and differences between Bhakti and Sufism?

The Bhakti movement is an atheistic devotional trend that began in medieval India and later transformed society. Sufism is Islam's mystical branch. Sufis reflect the innermost tenets of Islam (tasawwuf). The Bhakti and Sufi Movements of Medieval India played a critical part in the formation of a composite culture, the impact of which may still be observed today. 

• The Bhakti movement was established on monotheistic principles and strongly opposed idol worship.
• The Bhakti movement was established on the concept that love and devotion, rather than rituals or religious procedures, are the best ways to connect with God.
• The Bhakti reformers campaigned for liberation from the cycle of life and death, and that salvation could only be reached through ardent devotion and trust in God.
• They emphasized the need for self-surrender in obtaining God's happiness and grace, as well as the significance of Gurus who functioned as mentors and preceptors.
• They taught the concept of universal brotherhood.
• The Sufis attempted to purify their inner selves via severe introspection and mental effort to erase even the tiniest trace of selfishness and achieve ikhlas, or absolute purity of intention and action.
• The mystics recognized that, in addition to knowledge of the external sciences, intuitive knowledge was required to obtain illumination to which reason has no access.
