those who bows to govinda ( Vishnu ) bows to shankara ( shiva ) (i.e . ) both are pleased when we bow before any one of them .
Those who worship hari with devotion worship vrushadhvaja ( the one with the bull as his banner ) . One who hates viroopaaksha also hates jan\u0101rdana . ( i.e . ) hating lord Shiva is equal to hating lord Vishnu . Lord Vishnu is also disrespected when lord Shiva is.

So no hater of Shiva can call himself a devotee of Vishnu and no hater of Vishnu can call himself a devotee of Shiva . Those who dont understand rudra don\u2019t understand kevasha .

Sivananda Lahari in Verse 82 says: Lord Vishnu, who took many forms, as Thy arrow, as Thy mount,
as Thy consort occupying half Thy body, as a boar, as Thy friend, as Thy drummer etc. and who offered his eyes at Thy feet(in place of a lotus flower) - that Vishnu, forming a part of Thy very being, is indeed the most worshipful among the worshipful? If not, he, who is there to excel him?
Mahavishnu is the greatest bhakta of Lord Parameshwara. he follows all methods of Bhakti and enjoys doing so, because he is always with his Lord in all these forms. he enjoyed serving the
Lord by taking many forms. When Lord Parameshwara went to destroy the three cities of the Asuras, Mahavishnu became the bow in His hand. The three cities represent the three states waking, dreaming and deep sleep. Mahavishnu being the protector of the people is used by Shiva as a bow for destroying the negative tendencies during those three states. Vishnu became the Mighty Bull Vrishabha and carried Lord Shiva wherever He wanted to go. Here Vishnu became the servant Dasyam of his Lord. Hari took the form of a boar to find out and reach the feet of the Lord, Here he is doing vandanam to the Lord. As Parvati the consort of Shiva, Vishnu became half
of the body of Shiva by surrendering everything Atmanivedanam. A seeker surrendering everything in him becomes one with Bhagawan, he becomes a part of Bhagawan. hari took the form of
Mohini to infatuate the Asuras while distributing the nectar got by churning the milky ocean. Later showed this form to his beloved Lord Parameshwara and became His friend(sakhya). When Lord Nataraja danced the Cosmic dance, Vishnu played the Mridangam.
The protection of the universe has to follow the laws of nature and thus make everything move harmoniously according to their own
dharmas. This is depicted by Vishnu playing the Mridangam and keeping pace with the cosmic dance of Shiva.

Mahavishnu did archana to the beloved Lord Shiva with lotuses. He offered 999 lotuses and found one less. So out of his love for the Lord of his heart, he offered his eyes as the thousandth flower.
By all these deeds, Vishnu became the best amongst all the bhaktas of Shiva, the Lord of Ambika.
