Abhinna

 Abhinna

1. Iddhividha
Flying through the air, walking on water, diving into earth, creation of forms etc. belongs to this category.

2. Dibbasota
Is the celestial ear, also called clairaudience, which enables one to hear subtle or course sounds far and near.

3. Paracittavijanana
Is the power to discern the thoughts of others.

4. Pubbanivasanussati
Is the power to remember the past lives of oneself and others. This is the first supernormal vision the Buddha developed during the first watch on the night He attained the enlightenment.
With regard to this knowledge the Buddha’s power is limitless while in the case of others it is limited.

5. Dibbhacakkhu
Is the celestial or divine eye also called clairvoyance which enables one to see heavenly or earthly things far or near which are imperceptible to the physical eye.
This was the second knowledge the Buddha developed during the second watch on the night of his enlightenment.
These five kinds of supernormal visions are worldly, to this be added the sixth supernormal knowledge Asavakkhayannana knowledge with regards to the extinction of passions which is supermundane or the Nibbana.
 

The first kinds may be developed at any period but the last only during a Buddha cycle of about 2500 to 5000 years (my interpretation).
