Jñānasiddhi (ज्ञानसिद्धि) is one of the four heavenly beings from Nārikela, as mentioned in the Kathāsaritsāgara, chapter 54. Accordingly, as four heavenly figures said to Naravāhanadatta: “... and in it Nārikela there are four mountains with splendid expanses of land, named Maināka, Vṛṣabha, Cakra and Balāhaka; in those four we four live... the third is Jñānasiddhi, who knows the past, the present and the future... We have now gathered these golden lotuses and are going to offer them to the god, the husband of Śrī, in Śvetadvīpa. For we are all of us devoted to him, and it is by his favour that we possess rule over those mountains of ours, and prosperity, accompanied with supernatural power”.
