Learning HIndu - Vishnu

The aim of life is an inquiry into the Truth, and not the desire for enjoyment in heaven by performing religious rites,
Those who possess the knowledge of the Truth, call the knowledge of non-duality as the Truth,
It is called Brahman, the Highest Self, and Bhagavan.

—Sūta, Bhagavata Purana 1.2.10-11, translated by Daniel Sheridan[114]

So apparently, Vishnu is the deity/part of one God that the Hindus worship that represents the physical incarnations of God. Together along with Brahma the creator and Shiva the Destroyer they make up a sort of Hindu trinity of gods equaling God. He had supposedly come to earth as Krishna as well as Buddha among others. So from what I've read, thi sis like saying Krishna and Buddha were physical incarnations of like a supreme God.

Anyone who studies Hindu have any thoughts on the matter? Do I have it right?
