Solution

The correct option is D Veerashaiva
Basaveshwara and his disciples advocated Veerashaiva philosophy. Their philosophy was based on simple human values and they rejected numerous rituals and practices deeply rooted within the Vedic religion, like the caste hierarchy, the Hindu Brahmanical ritualism and its adherence to sacred texts like the Vedas.
