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]
