Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam
[Canto 3, Ch. 32]
entire material universe is dissolved. Persons who are worshipers of Hiraṇyagarbha, the plenary expansion of the Supreme Personality of Godhead Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, do not directly approach the Supreme Personality of Godhead in Vaikuṇṭha. They remain within this universe on Satyaloka or other higher planets until the end of the life of Brahmā. Then, with Brahmā, they are elevated to the spiritual kingdom.
The words  parasya para-cintakāḥ  mean always thinking of the Supreme Personality of Godhead or being always Kṛṣṇa conscious. When we speak of Kṛṣṇa this refers to the complete category of  viṣṇu-tattva . Kṛṣṇa includes the three  puruṣa  incarnations, namely Mahā-Viṣṇu, Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu and Kṣīrodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, as well as all the incarnations taken together. This is confirmed in the  Brahma-saṁhitā .  Rāmādi-mūrtiṣu kalā-niyamena tiṣṭhan : Lord Kṛṣṇa is perpetually situated with His many expansions, such as Rāma, Nṛsiṁha, Vāmana, Madhusūdana, Viṣṇu and Nārāyaṇa. He exists with all His plenary portions and the portions of His plenary portions, and each of them is as good as the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The words  parasya para-cintakāḥ  mean those who are fully Kṛṣṇa conscious. Such persons enter directly into the kingdom of God, the Vaikuṇṭha planets, or, if they are worshipers of the plenary portion Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu, then they remain within this universe until dissolution, and after that they enter.
