Those who perform righteous actions with the selfish desire for the attainment of heaven may do so.Those who desire liberation via the path of jnana or yoga may pursue that goal,but i want nothing of these two paths.i wish to engross myself in the nectar of shri krishna's lotus feet.I do not desire wordly or heavenly pleasures,not do i desire liberation.I am a rasika who relishes the bliss of divine love.

Namaste bandhu,
But actually Shankara sung "Shivo hum".
Vishnu is Vibhu -- all pervading, omnipresent. Human minds limit themselves within categories. But true spiritualists who have the infinite Vibhu as the only goal are all vaisnavas. They are saivas also, since will all pervading Vibhu be of any use if it was not auspicious?
Om Namah Shivaya
That which is without letters (parts) is the Fourth, beyond apprehension through ordinary means, the cessation of the phenomenal world, the auspicious and the non-dual. Thus Om is certainly the Self. He who knows thus enters the Self by the Self.
