In [[Jainism]], clairvoyance is regarded as one of the five kinds of knowledge. The beings of [[Hell]] and [[heaven]] (devas) are said to possess clairvoyance by birth. According to Jain text Sarvārthasiddhi, "this kind of knowledge has been called avadhi as it ascertains matter in downward range or knows objects within limits." Clairvoyance is also one of the abilities gained by anyone who has achieved enlightenment.
