Answer
Tipiṭaka or "Tripitakas" are sacred books of the Buddhist scriptures. Tripiṭaka (Sanskrit) or Tipiṭaka (Pali) literally translates as 'Three Baskets', meaning "basket or box made from bamboo or wood"). The 'three baskets' were originally the receptacles of the palm-leaf manuscripts in which were preserved the Sutta Piṭaka, the Vinaya Piṭaka, and the Abhidhamma Piṭaka, the three divisions that constitute the Pali Canon. These terms are also spelled without diacritics as Tripiṭaka and Tipiṭaka in scholarly literature.
