Just curious. >i wouldn't go so far as to say i'm not 'interested' in vishnu bhakti, but >i'm certainly not pursuing it - i'm pursuing Krishna. I hope you see the difference between being "not interested in Vishnu bhakti" and having Krishna as one's ishta-devata. There is a great difference between the two. And as for those who are not interested in Vishnu-bhakti, who else are they not interested in having devotion for? Anyone here not interested in Narasimha bhakti? How about Rama bhakti, don't be interested in that either. And certainly not Dvaraka Krishna bhakti. I would hate for someone to be interested in that. The fact is, devotees of Krishna have devotion for every single form He takes, knowing there is no difference between any of them. Refer "His forms are one and the same." - Teachings of Lord Chaitanya. This does not negate one's special affection for one's ishta-devata.
