Hearing that his father and uncles had made this decision, the young Jiva desired to join them. According to the biographical work Bhakti Ratnakara of Narahari Chakravarti, Jiva had a dream of Chaitanya at this time. This gave him the impetus to leave home in order to join Chaitanya. It is unclear whether or not Jiva actually ever met Chaitanya personally. Jiva travelled to Navadvipa in West Bengal and met with Nityananda, one of the foremost followers of Chaitanya. Nityananda took Jiva to all the holy places in Navadvipa and they cir ...

Jiva went on to Benares where he studied for some time under the tutalage of Madhusudana Vidyavachaspati, the brother of the famous logician and Vedantist, Vasudeva Sarvabhauma Bhattacharya. Under Vidyavachaspati, Jiva mastered the six systems of Indian philosophy (Sad Darsana). In 1535 Jiva arrived in Vrindavana where he remained under the tutalage of his uncles, Rupa and Sanatana (by this time his father Anupama had passed away).

After the passing of Rupa and Sanatana, Jiva Goswami became the foremost authority in the Gaudiya Vaishnava line. In 1542 Jiva established one of the most important temples in Vrindavana, the Radha-Damodara temple, installing deities of Radha and Krishna that had been personally carved by Rupa Goswami. At that time he also established the Vishva Vaishnava Raja Sabha (World Vaishnava Association) and the Rupanuga Vidyapitha, an educational facility for Gaudiya Vaishnavas to study the works of Rupa and Sanatana. His erudition and spirituality were so famous that the Moghul emperor Akb ...
