The Tipitaka, also known as the Pali Canon, is the traditional scripture of Theravada Buddhism and is composed of three "baskets" (pitaka): the Vinaya Pitaka (monastic rules), the Sutta Pitaka (Buddha's discourses), and the Abhidhamma Pitaka (philosophical and doctrinal analysis). It was first written down in the 1st century BCE in Sri Lanka, preserving teachings that had been orally transmitted for centuries. The Tipitaka is regarded as one of the oldest collections of Buddhist texts and serves as a foundational source for understanding Buddhist philosophy and practice. Its teachings emphasize ethical conduct, mental discipline, and wisdom as pathways to enlightenment.
