Tripiṭaka (Sanskrit: "Three Baskets") refers to the classic collection of Buddhist scriptures - or rather, collections, because there is no single definitive list across all traditions. The baskets are generally considered to be categories: Sutras (teachings in the form of stories/recollections), Vinaya (monastic code/rules/precepts), and Abhidhamma ("higher" teachings in scholarly doctrine form). The Chinese rendition of tripitaka, 三藏 Sānzàng can also be used as a title for a monk who has mastered the collection.
