| Apart from the Vaishnavas' Vishnu, Shaivites Shiva and Shakta's Devi there are three more godheads that are adored. |
| In Southern India we find the Shaivites, who have nothing to do with Dionysism but whom nevertheless, have similar lines of experience. |
| The Shaivites were also a growing force in the religious life of India. |
| Kailas is holy to Lord Shiva, and many pilgrims are Shaivites from the south, from lowland cities such as Bangalore and Mumbai. |
