Correct option is B

The correct answer is (B) Buddhism.

  • The three holy texts of Buddhism are known as Tripitaka.
  • The Tripitaka is regarded as the oral transmission of the Buddha's teachings that were preserved in writing by the Buddha's followers.
  • The Buddha's successor, Mahakashypa, coordinated the reciting of these verses with the approval of other disciples. Buddhism regards the "Tripitaka" scriptures as its holy text.
  • The Three Pitakas are:
  1. Vinaya Pitaka, which deals with order conduct.
  2. Sutta Pitaka, which is the largest collection of Buddha's teachings.
  3. The Abhidhamma Pitaka, a work on metaphysics.
  • Many different Buddishit Councils are thought to have assembled these works.

Incorrect options explanation:

  • Zoroastrianism:Zoroastrianism is an Iranian religion and one of the world's earliest organised faiths, founded on the teachings of Zoroaster, an Iranian-speaking prophet. It has a dualistic cosmology of good and evil within the setting of a monotheistic ontology, as well as an eschatology that predicts the ultimate triumph of good over evil.
  • Jainism:Jainism is an Indian religion also referred to as the Jain Dharma. Through the succession of twenty-four Tirthankaras (supreme preachers of Dharma), Jainism traces its spiritual ideas and history. The beginning of the present time cycle, according to tradition, was Rishabhadeva, who lived millions of years ago. The twenty-third Tirthankara, Parshvanatha, is believed to have lived in the ninth century BCE. The twenty-fourth Tirthankara, Mahavira, is believed to have lived around 600 BCE.
