The Vaikhanasas evolved the theory of the five aspects of Vishnu.

Vishnu, the all-pervading supreme deity;
Purusha, the principle of life;
Satya, the static aspect of deity;
Achyuta, the immutable aspect;
Aniruddha, the irreducible aspect.

The distinction is emphasised between Vishnu in his Niskala presence, the unfigured primaeval and indivisible form unperceived even by Brahma, and his Sakala presence, the figured, divisible, emanated, and movable form. In his Sakala, the presence he responds gracefully to devotional meditation. Shri is important as nature, Prakriti, and as the power, Shakti, of Vishnu.

The nature of a man's Moksha is dependent on a devotee's service of Japa, attentive repetition of prayer, Huta, Yaaga, sacrifice, archana, service to images, or Dhyana, Yogic meditation. Of the four the Marichi Samhita says Archana is the realisation of all aims.

The Vaikhanasa tradition's five-fold conception of Vishnu includes Purusha, Prakriti, Satya, Achyuta, and Aniruddha.

This framework is central to their worship of Vishnu and his incarnations.

The answer must be B

The answer is b because brahman is nt there in vaikhanasas.

It involves vishnu, purusa, aniridha, achutya, and satya.
