There are some that claim Visnu worship is not wanted.I used to stress worship of Krsna in Vrindavana as our acaryas has done so. I still do.But worship of Lord Visnu is also very important.In His lila as a housholder Lord Caitanya used to worship Lord Visnu in the morning.Sometimes 1000 names of Visnu would be chanted.
In this world there is two classes of men those who worship Visnu and the demons, it is confirmed in all the Vedas, Puranas and Srimad Bhagavatam and Bhagavad Gita.
visnu-saktih para prokta
ksetrajnakhya tatha para
avidya-karma-samjnan ya
trtiya saktir isyate
TRANSLATION
" 'Originally, Krsna's energy is spiritual, and the energy known as the living entity is also spiritual. However, there is another energy, called illusion, which consists of fruitive activity. That is the Lord's third potency.'
Everything in this material world is Lord Visnu's energy.To ignore any of Lord Visnus forms or disrespect them is a great offence.Krsna das Babaji at Govardhana used to chant the Narayana Kavacha everyday and also chant 2 or 3 laks holy names.He was so powerfull in his Bhakti that Radha Krsna would do Their Holi festival right in front of his vision, and sometimes divne colors and divine scents where all over his bhajan kutir.
ete camsa-kalah pumsah
krsnas tu bhagavan svayam

mrdayanti yuge yuge
