Note: Refers to the form of Hinduism that emerged from the cult of Vasudeva-Krishna. It is founded on the worship of the god Vishnu and of his incarnations, principally Rama and Krishna.

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 從異端教派韋蘇提婆-克里希納(Vasudeva-Krishna)所興起的一支印度教形式。敬拜毗濕奴神及其轉世:主要是羅摩(Rama)與黑天(Krishna)。其特色為強調虔誠敬拜(bhakti, 對神的虔信),敬拜者的最終目標為經由神恩幫助超越生死輪迴,最終得以與毗濕奴精神合一。 
Dutch ..... Verwijst naar de vorm van het hindoeïsme die is voortgekomen uit de Vasudeva-Krishna-cultus. Het visjnoeïsme is gebaseerd op de verering van de god Visjnoe en zijn verschijningsvormen, met name Rama en Krishna. Bij de religie ligt de nadruk op devotie (bhakti), waarbij het uiteindelijke doel van de gelovige is om met hulp van de goddelijke genade de cyclus van geboorte en dood te overstijgen, om een spiritueel verbond aan te gaan met Visjnoe. 
Spanish ..... Se refiere a la forma de hinduismo que emerge desde el culto de Vasudeva-Krishna. Fue fundado en el culto del dios Vishnu y de sus encarnaciones, principalmente rema y Krishna. La religión presenta un énfasis en el culto devocional (bhakti) en que el objetivo último del devoto es trascender el ciclo de nacimiento y muerte, con la ayuda de la gracia divina, en orden a unirse a Vishnu en una comunión espiritual.
