user10105: What is the proper Pali word for Buddha's power of seeing other beings mind? I think it starts with Paricitta or something. I want the proper Pali term. Also, can I have any sutta references to it as well?

user8157: 
Katamañca, kevaṭṭa, ādesa­nā­pā­ṭihā­ri­yaṃ? Idha, kevaṭṭa, bhikkhu parasattānaṃ parapuggalānaṃ cittampi ādisati, cetasikampi ādisati,
vitakkitampi ādisati, vicāritampi ādisati: ‘evampi te mano, itthampi
te mano, itipi te cittan’ti.
And what is the miracle of telepathy? There is the case where a monk reads the minds, the mental events, the thoughts, the ponderings of
other beings, other individuals, [saying,] 'Such is your thinking,
here is where your thinking is, thus is your mind.'
Kevatta (Kevaddha) Sutta
ādesanā = pointing out, guessing, prophesy; only in phrase -pāṭihāriya trick or marvellous ability of mind-reading or guessing other peoples character



Parasattānaṃ parapuggalānaṃ cetasā ceto paricca pajānāti
He knows the mind of other beings, other individuals, having encompassed it with his own mind.
Kayagata-Sati Sutta
paricca = distinguished or understood
pajānāti = knows clearly
para = other
sattānaṃ = beings'
puggalānaṃ = persons
cetasā = minds
ceto = mind



Hinduism: para citta ādi abhijñatā: knowing the minds of others


user295: The word you are looking for is para citta vijana nana
Pali:

Para - another
Citta - mind
Vijana - understand
Nana - knowledge

I.e., knowledge of another's mind.
This is also known as ceto pariya ñāṇa.
