viṣṇu-rahasye ca— śrī-viṣṇor arcanaṁ ye tu prakurvanti narā bhuvi | te yānti śāśvataṁ viṣṇor ānandaṁ paramaṁ padam ||139||

Translation

In the Viṣṇu-rahasya also it is said: Those men who perform arcana of Viṣṇu on this earth go to the eternal, supreme place of Viṣṇu, which is full of bliss

Purport (Nectar of Devotion)

In the Viṣṇu-rahasya, also, it is stated, “Any person within this world who is engaged in the worship of Viṣṇu can very easily achieve the ever-blissful kingdom of God, known as Vaikuṇṭhaloka.” Rendering Service to the Lord It is stated in the Viṣṇu-rahasya, “Any person who can arrange for service to the Lord in the same way that a king is given service by his attendants is surely elevated to the abode of Kṛṣṇa after death.” Actually, in India the temples are just like royal palaces. They are not ordinary buildings, because the worship of Kṛṣṇa should be performed in just the way that a king is worshiped in his palace. So in Vṛndāvana there are many hundreds of temples wherein the Deity is worshiped exactly like a king.
