Vaishnavism is the living product of the Vishista Advaita Vedanta conception of Reality, in synthesising the guide to the conduct of those who understand the philosophy of accommodating oneself to Reality that it represents as being a faultless in its realisation.

The mode of individual travel through life generates ananda/bliss from one's karma as the actions that one then undertakes automatically that is faultless also in being Sanatan Dharma, the worship of Creation, born on Love, and to be lived in love.

Vaishnavism, focused on the worship of Vishnu, is closely related to Vishishtadvaita Vedanta, a philosophical system developed by Ramanuja. Vishishtadvaita provides the theological framework for Vaishnavism, portraying Vishnu (Narayana) as the supreme, personal deity. It emphasizes devotion (bhakti) as the path to liberation and emiratescheckid harmonizes the unity of Brahman with the individuality of souls and the material world, aligning with Vaishnavite teachings and practices.

The philosophical system developed by me is somewhat different. It does not recognise Vishnu as the supreme God entity but only as the Trimurti God Vishnu (rajasic) along with its Brahma (sattvic) and Shiva (tamasic) counterparts as the three aspects of guna consciousness which give rise to all the good (divine or sattvic), semi-divine or rajasic) and evil (tamasic) nuances of Brahman as Brahma-Nature.

The Supreme God Entity in our Vishista Advaiata Vedanta's Vaishnavism is Sri Krishna/Durga which creates Brahman and withdraws it at the end of creation.
Sri Krishna/Durga is the name that we have given for the reason that the male and female gods and goddesses are represented in guna consciousness as Brahma-Saraswati (sattvic), Vishnu-Lakshmi (rajasic), and Shiva-Parvati (tamasic).

The Holy Book of this Vishista Advaita Sampradaya is the Bhagavad Gita in totality.

Humans can attain the level of the Brahman (Self) itself by losing all their attachments utterly and completely so that the mind is totally free and unrestricted. This means one must have no hopes, no wishes, no ambitions, no plans, no aims, no missions, no desires, and no ego. This enables one to operate at the atman (Self) level of the mind with stillness and no consciousness at all: that is to say one is Nothingness. The atman is then Brahman. and one is a purnaavatar or as close to God (Sri Krishna-Durga) as is possible within the limits of achintya bhed abheda tatwa (oneness yet separateness from God as Sri Krishna/Durga). In this state of mind, one acts totally nonchalantly, spontaneously and unpremeditatedly in all one's actions, and thereby one is conducting karma in sanatan dharma as one's dharmayudha twenty-four hours a day.

I hope this provides a clear-enough explanation of the way Vaishnavism is associated with Vishista Advaita Vedanta according to this Sampradaya.
