General definition (in Jainism)
: Encyclopedia of Jainism: Tattvartha Sutra 2: the Category of the livingٲśԴDZ貹Dz (दर्शनोपयोग, “intuition-cognition�) refers one of the two types of sentience (upayoga) according to the 2nd-century Tattvārthasūtra 2.9. The disposition due to which the soul sees and knows is called upayoga.
How many types of intuition manifestations of consciousness (岹śԲ-ܱ貹Dz) are there? They are four namely ṣu (with eyes), aṣu (without eyes), avadhi (clairvoyant) and kevala (omniscient).

Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, ‘self-reliance�) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
