Jahnava Devi (Sanskrit: জাহ্নবী দেবী); c. 1481 – c. 1541), also called Jahnava Mata, was the wife of Nityananda [2] and a philosopher and saint from the Gaudiya Vaishnava school of Hindu Vedanta.[3] She became a leading figure in Gaudiya Vaishnavism and a diksa guru and sampradaya head.[4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14]
Life
[edit ]Janhava Devi was born in Ambika Kalna (modern-day Bardhaman district of West Bengal, India) and spent her childhood there. She is mentioned in Janhaba Astakam: Sri Jiva Goswami , confirming that she was widely known and a cherished figure in the Bhakti movement by about 1600 CE.[15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20]
