Virabhadra Goswami was inundated with Jahnava Mata's mercy, becoming Her direct initiated disciple. Nityananda Das writes in his Prema-Vilasa that when Virabhadra saw Jahnava Devi in a four-armed form, His mind was changed and He decided to accept Her as His diksha Guru.
Without the mercy of Nityananda Prabhu's energy, Jahnava Devi, no one is able to cross over the ocean of material life, nor can one obtain the service of Nityananda Prabhu and enter into the loving service of His worshipable Gaurhari and Radha-Krishna.
Srila Bhakti Vinode Thakur has written in his Kalyankalpatru:
"O Jahnava Devi! Be merciful today to your servant and deliver me from my pain. Give me a place in the boat of your lotus feet so that I can be sure to cross over the ocean of birth and death. You are Nityananda's energy. You are devotion to Krishna and my guru. Please give this servant the desire tree of your lotus feet. How numerous are the fallen souls that you have saved? So this fallen beggar seeks a place at your feet."
Srila Krishna Das in his song that begins as Jaya Radhe Jaya Krishna Jaya Vrindavana, has prayed for Jahnava Devi's mercy after glorifying Krishna's name, abode and associates: "Remembering Jahnava Devi's lotus feet, the lowly Krishna Das sings the name of the Lord
