BENEFITS OF THE TRIPITAKA

Abstract

The Tripitaka is a scripture that compiles all the teachings of Buddhism. There is historical and archaeological evidence that can be clearly and truly researched. This allows all Buddhists, including people of other religions, to study the history of Buddhism more widely and understand it better, even if they were not born during the time of the Buddha. We could confidently believe that the teachings that appeared in the Tripitaka were the teachings of the Buddha, who was the greatest teacher in the world. Studying the Tripitaka leads to knowledge, understanding, and correct practice according to the principles of Buddhism, both in terms of training the body and mind, and creating wisdom, including truly leading oneself to escape from suffering. The principles, knowledge, and practices are the true truths according to the principles of nature. Therefore, they are suitable for all human beings, not only Buddhists who can practice them but also people of all races and religions can learn and practice them as well. The knowledge contained in the Tripitaka opened up opportunities for all human beings to study it fully and equally, in order to create happiness and peace for the world in a stable and sustainable manner.
