      Question

      What is the primary language in which the original

      Buddhist scriptures, the Tripitaka, were written?
      A Sanskrit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Pali Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Prakrit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Hindi Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Much of the surviving Tripiс╣нaka literature is in Pali, with some in Sanskrit as well as other local Asian languages. The Pali Canon does not contain the Mahayana Sutras and Tantras as Mahayana schools were not influential in Theravada tradition as in East Asia and Tibet.
