He 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; and Aniruddha, the irreducible aspect.
The distinction is emphasised between Vishnu in his Niskala presence, the unfigured primeval and indivisible form unperceived even by Brahma, and his Sakala presence, the figured, divisible, emanated, and movable form.
In his sakala presence he responds gracefully to devotional meditation. Shri is important as nature, Prakriti, and as the power, Shakti, of Vishnu. The Vaikhanasa doctrine states that Moksha is release into Vishnu's heaven.
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.

Vaikhanasas evolved the theory of the five fold concept of Vishnu: 1) viShNu is the sarva vyapin, the primary source, the eternal state from which all arise. 2) From him differentiates the puruSha, which is a distinct entity or the property of existence, termed consciousness. 3) From vishnu also emanates satya, the which is the matter comprising the universe. 4) acyuta is the time-invariant aspect of all matter. 5) aniruddha is the ultimate atomic particle of all existence. These five states of viShNu are represented by the vaikhAnasas as the 5 vedic fires: 1) gArhapatya, 2) AhavanIya, 3) dakShiNAgni, 4) anvAhArya and 5) sabhya.

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.
