In Jainism, Jnanavarniya Karma is the category of karma that obscures or covers knowledge (jnana). There are five subdivisions (types) of Jnanavarniya Karma:

1. Mati Jnanavarniya Karma (Obscuring sensory knowledge)
2. Shrut Jnanavarniya Karma (Obscuring scriptural knowledge)
3. Avadhi Jnanavarniya Karma (Obscuring clairvoyant knowledge)
4. Manahparyaya Jnanavarniya Karma (Obscuring telepathic knowledge)
5. Kevala Jnanavarniya Karma (Obscuring omniscience or perfect knowledge)

These five types obscure the five kinds of knowledge recognized in Jain philosophy.
