The three parts of Bauddha Tripitakas are ................... .

  • A.Abhidhammapitak, Samyakpitak, Aryasattyapitak
  • B.Samyakpitak, Suttapitak, Karmapitak
  • C.Abhidhammapitak, Vinaypitak, Suttapitak
  • D.Karmapitak, Vinaypitak, Panchasheelpitak

Answer: C

The three parts are the Abhidhammapitak, Vinaypitak and Suttapitak.

The Tripitaka ('three baskets'), the Pali canon of Buddhism, consists of the Vinaya Pitaka (rules of discipline for monks and nuns), the Sutta Pitaka (the Buddha's discourses) and the Abhidhamma Pitaka (philosophical and psychological analysis of the teachings).

'Samyakpitak', 'Aryasattyapitak', 'Karmapitak' and 'Panchasheelpitak' are not parts of the canon. The names borrow Buddhist terms such as the 'samyak' (right) of the Eightfold Path, the four Arya Satya (Noble Truths) and Panchsheel, but none is a pitaka.
