Best Answer

The Tipitaka contains different histories and teachings of Buddha. The contents of the Tipitaka were handed down orally and then finally put into writing. It is not clear as to who the contributors were.

The Tipitaka was not written by one single author. It is a collection of teachings and scriptures that are attributed to the Buddha and his disciples. It was compiled and written down by various Buddhist monks over several centuries following the Buddha's death.
