What do the Buddhism followers call their scriptures or holy book?

The Tripitaka is the earliest collection of Buddhist writings. Initially, they were orally transmitted, but were written down by the third century BCE. The word means "the three baskets," and refers to the way the texts were first recorded. The early writing material was long, narrow leaves, which were sewn together on one side. Bunches of these were then stored in baskets. This is a large collection, running 45 volumes in one modern edition. The Tripitaka is comprised of the Sutras, sermons and teachings of Buddha; Abhidharma, discourses on interpretation of the doctrine; and Vinay, rules for monks and nuns in monastic life. So the Tripitaka defines what Buddhism is and how we are to live our lives.
