I regard Vishnu and Shiva as two facets of the One. The Vaishnava path seems more personal to me than Saiva (and advaita) path.
I don't know what you mean by advaita exactly, but devotion to personal forms of God are integral to both the orthodox tradition of shankara and modern derivatives of non-dualism inspired by ramana maharshi or otherwise.
Why are you unhappy? Because 99.9 per cent Of everything you think, And of everything you do, Is for yourself —And there isn't one
