Vaikuntha
Vaikuntha (वैकुण्ठ), also called Vishnuloka (), and Tirunatu (Tirunāṭu) in Tamil, is the abode of Vishnu, the supreme deity in the Vaishnava tradition of Hinduism, and his consort, Lakshmi, the supreme goddess. According to Ramanuja, Vaikuntha is the Parama Padam or Nitya Vibhuti, an "eternal heavenly realm", and is the "divine imperishable world that is God's abode". In Vaishnava literature, Vaikuntha is described as the highest realm above the fourteen lokas (worlds), where the devotees of Vishnu go upon achieving liberation.
Parabrahman
Parabrahman ou Paraṃbrahman (devanāgarī: परंब्रह्मन्) est un terme sanskrit de la philosophie hindoue qui désigne l'« Esprit Suprême » ou la réalité ultime. Parabrahman est le “Brahman suprême“ ce qui est au-delà de toutes les descriptions et conceptualisations. Il est décrit comme sans forme qui imprègne éternellement tout, partout dans l'univers et tout ce qui est au-delà. Dans le Vedānta et plus particulièrement l'Advaita Vedānta, Parabrahman signifie la réalité ultime qui est une et non-duelle, inconditionnée, sans qualité et sans attribut.
Gaudiya Vaishnavism
Gaudiya Vaishnavism (), also known as Chaitanya Vaishnavism, is a Vaishnava Hindu religious movement inspired by Chaitanya Mahaprabhu (1486–1534) in India. "Gaudiya" refers to the Gaura or Gauḍa region of Bengal (present-day Malda district of West Bengal and Rajshahi district of Bangladesh), with Vaishnavism meaning "the worship of Vishnu". Specifically, it is part of Krishnaism—Krishna-centric Vaishnavite traditions.
Radha

Elle est presque toujours représentée auprès de Krishna et a une importance prédominante dans le Vaishnava (vishnouisme) en tant que shakti (ces avatârs sont nombreux, autant dans son aspect de beauté enchanteresse liée au plaisir érotique, que comme source de passions extrêmes).
Bhakti movement
The Bhakti movement was a significant religious movement in medieval Hinduism that sought to bring religious reforms to all strata of society by adopting the method of devotion to achieve salvation. Originating in Tamilakam during 6th century CE, it gained prominence through the poems and teachings of the Vaishnava Alvars and Shaiva Nayanars before spreading northwards. It swept over east and north India from the 15th century onwards, reaching its zenith between the 15th and 17th century CE.
Pancharatra
Pancharatra (IAST: Pāñcarātra) was a religious movement in Hinduism that originated in late 3rd-century BCE around the ideas of Narayana and the various avatars of Vishnu as their central deities. The movement later merged with the ancient Bhagavata tradition and contributed to the development of Vaishnavism. The Pancharatra movement created numerous literary treatises in Sanskrit called the Pancharatra Samhitas, and these have been influential Agamic texts within the theistic Vaishnava movements.
