Solution

The correct option is D Tirumurais
During the rule of the Cholas, there were two major groups of Bhakti poets. They preached salvation through the path of Bhakti or devotion to the deity. Their works were collected in eight volumes called "Tirumurais". This collection is also considered as the "Fifth Veda".
