Jhanas and Siddhis
Jhanas and Siddhis
I'm researching the Jhanas and Siddhis and I'm trying to understand which Siddhis arise for which Jhanas. I know that Siddhis begin to arise in the 4th Jhana but I dont know what kind of siddhi arises and which siddhis arise in the subsequent Jhanas. I'm asking about this for 2 reasons. One so I have the knowledge.. and 2 I purchased a Roleplaying Game called TIBET and it is a game where you can play Buddhists. I have found a lot of problems in this game like for example according to the game you get Siddhis by gaining Karma but this is wrong it is by attaining Jhanas. So I'm trying to figure out what siddhis arise with what Jhanas anyone have any advice?

It depends on the object of concentration. If you meditate on earth element then the siddhi of moving through walls is likely. Did you check the kosa?

The Kosa? I'll google it..
All I know so far is that you start to get Siddhis by the 4th Jhana but it doesnt say what Siddhis.

The Abhidharmakosa. It's not like there are X number of siddhis that you can achieve. There are more siddhis than X-men. You might be confusing with the 6 abhijna, of which siddhis are one.
