After 45 years of preaching, the teaching of the Buddha not only not be forgotten, misplaced, but also keep and spread until today, as the foundation for a great culture with the characteristics of art, architecture, sculpture, painting, literature, philosophy, etc. .. and become the source of life and hope of humanity around the world.
ORIGINAL Tripitaka
teachings After 45 years, the Buddha's teachings are not only not be forgotten, lost, but is stored, spread until today, as the foundation for a great culture with unique art, architecture, conditioned carving, painting, literature, philosophy, etc. .. and become the source of life and hope of humanity around the world. So, there are two reasons: First, the teachings of the Buddha in accordance with the truth everywhere and forever; Monday due process and keep spreading the word of the holy being in which the recital times and translated classic works is fundamental.
None of the recital time and work sessions there is no canonical translation Tripitaka today.
the first time aggregates formed and the Vinaya scriptures. Seen this aggregation was held just four months after the Buddha's Nirvana. By Mr. Upali Vinaya (Pali advantage) and the Canon chaired by Mr. Ananda (Ananda) ø chair. Of course the next time the collection has more additional content and Vinaya scriptures. Comments organs are formed in two times the third set and fourth. Once the third set by King Asoka (Ashoka) backed and sponsored organizations Buddha Nirvana after 218 years (325 years BC) to the mix and purification refute the slanders of the heathen summarized at lectures in psychology, and the minister can calculate things, forming Abhidhamma Pitaka (Abhidhamma). The fourth time aggregation takes place about 400 years after the Nirvana Buddha by king Kanishka (NI Sac Ca Ca) sponsored organization, is composed of three sets of economic reasoning to explain the law and post a comment chant three hundred thousand. According to traditional Buddhist Nam, fourth time aggregation takes place in Sri Lanka (Ceylon) is a period of 400 years after Buddha's Nirvana king Vattagamani sponsored by organizations with a complete and results are written down in Pali Tripitaka entire South transmission system.
Besides the recital times as summarized above, the translation work has major contribution in the formation Tripitaka, especially for North Tripitaka TV . While South Communications Pali Tripitaka simply derived from the teachings of which 5 of Nikàya by Venerable Mahinda (Masan), daughter of King Asoka (Ashoka) gave the oral transmission in Sri Lanka Tripitaka North transmission derived from Sanskrit Sanskrit is formed through an arduous process cumbersome.
Until the 10th century, Indian Buddhism in general and Buddhism in particular North Sanskrit transmission still good development. No one would have thought that pretty soon, especially since the beginning of the 13th century onwards, Buddhism as completely destroyed. Destroyed so that he can say Buddhism would have absent the fifth century on his home. The researchers cited several reasons, but mainly due to the destruction of the Muslim nation of Turkey. In the spirit of discrimination, intolerance of religious extremism, fanaticism, they massacred the Muslims refused, arson temples, scriptures and the grassroots non-Islamic culture. Typical cases Nalanda Institute of Buddhist Studies. It is a center of culture, education, training veteran reputation of Buddhism in India is Sakraditya king (ruler-ca-la-land Multi) founded in the second century, ie before the Disabled more breaking 10 century, where at least ten thousand crowded students, where the famous commentator of Mahayana Buddhism as Asanga, Vasubandhu, Nagarjuna taught, where Xuanzang, France Hien, Yi Jing in the 7th century stayed retreat, where from a famous ancient library storing precious and rare books, including the classic Sanskrit ... This place has twice been the army of Islam Catholic destruction. destroy. The first time, in 1197, under the command of Gen. Mohammad bin Bakhtyan, tribal Muslim Turkey Khaj of arson base, killing more than 8,000 books and over 1,500 monks and priests eminent professor contemporary Nalanda. The second time, in 1235, the other a Muslim army had burned and killed almost all the residents studied and taught there, leaving only 70 surviving monks fled to Nepal and Tibet . It is typical for most of the temples, Buddhist establishments all over India. That is why Buddhist Mati was totally absent in India for 5 centuries. That is why the majority of the Sanskrit classics disappear making Sanskrit language, cradle carrying Buddhist scriptures North transmission is not the original language of the Buddhist Tripitaka North passed today as Pali the original language of the Buddhist Tripitaka South transmission.
however, luck also. The majority of Sanskrit texts which largely arson, destruction in India has been reserved in translation Tibet and China several centuries earlier to later become the Tibetan Tripitaka Tripitaka China.
Tripitaka

Or Tripitaka Tripitaka Tripitaka or the Holy Church is called to show the entire Buddhist scriptures have been codified in the same language, including 3 organ: Economics, Law, Luan. From two original language is used to record the Sanskrit and Pali scriptures, Buddhist texts have now been translated into many languages ​​around the world should also Tripitaka with many different languages. However, due to the complete elements, systems and historical influence that the Pali Tripitaka, China and Tibet superior value. Bearing in mind that the same kind of Tripitaka there are differences in each edition, such differences in Pali Tripitaka edition of Thailand compared with Pali Tripitaka edition of Ceylon. Also, although considered Chinese Tripitaka, but there are differences in content between the publication of Nhut, the Korean, the Chinese because the episode was based on a different edition of the previous Chinese Tripitaka.

Southern Communications Tripitaka : or also known as the Pali scriptures, the Tripitaka Buddhist countries of South transmit Buddhism as Sri Lanka, Burma, Thailand, Cambodia ... This is the Tripitaka and complete system early, not going through the cumbersome way should be translated researchers believe that Westerners close to what the Buddha taught the most.

Tan Dai Tu Chanh Tripitaka : This is the Chinese Tripitaka is the reputation of Japanese scholars set up under the Chief of the Japanese dynasty (1912-1925) and was published in the 10 year period starting in 1924 and completed in 1934. Tripitaka This is the research scholars were rated as the most complete, most competent and most prestigious being used all over the world including in the European and American University to study Buddhism. Tripitaka consists of 100 large and thick set according to the dictionary format, including nearly 12 thousand volumes, containing 3360 texts, legal documents and essays. The main part of the Tripitaka collection includes 55 activities, laws and theories, the sect of China and Japan and the topics related to history, biography, table of contents. In addition to the remaining 55 episode 30 episode with tacpham 736 Japanese and 15 subjects that episode.

Kangyur Tripitaka and Tengyur: This is the name of the Tibetan Tripitaka, including more than 300 sets of texts translated from Sanskrit. Kangyur scriptures record the Buddha's discourses always include both precepts, including 92 of the 1055 article. Comments Tangyur organs including the conclusion of the Bac Luan Buddhist India, including 224 of the 3626 article. It is noteworthy that in fact there are many scriptures recited, research, teaching rather than quantity has been printed in the Great Organ. Maybe because the original Sanskrit lost a large number of previous translations in the early stages of Tibetan Buddhism is not officially recognized. Until the 11th century, a new plan review and for translation Tripitaka cataloged. However, there are still a large number of outside. Directly translated from the original Sanskrit in the early stages should Tripitaka Tibetan scholars resource assessment is true and important.

Postcript: Tripitaka Prayer for Vietnam to take form

The spirit of the Buddhists in Bukkyo Dendo Kyokai organization as presented above is just so adorable. Their country (Japan) has Tripitaka - not one that many publications. They did not stop there. From decades, they have so many programs and plans have been made ​​to the words of the Buddha to be all over the world. It is true that they are under great volunteer steps "beings of boundless vows."

Those who are interested in this Buddha found that the human component, the program and working methods of the Council, Tripitaka Vietnam will surely shape. But that time is already near the end of 1973. Arguably, a misfortune for Buddhist Vietnam war and political instability, social bring the Tripitaka had no sooner Vietnam .
