Its texts and meanings are manifold, exceeding the three baskets; hence it is called the miscellaneous collection. When the Buddha was in the world, King Ajātaśatru asked the Buddha about the practices of a bodhisattva. The Tathāgata preached the Dharma for him in full. Suppose the king asked the Buddha: "What is meant by the Dharma?" The reply was: "The Dharma is the Bodhisattva Pitaka. The various vaipulya correct sūtras are all matters within the Bodhisattva Pitaka." Formerly, when the Buddha was in the world, it was already called the Great Being's Pitaka. What Ānanda compiled is indeed the present four pitakas. Taken together, they make five pitakas. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1507.1.17) - [Next: 1.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1507.1.19) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1507.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1507~en-mt.1.18) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1507.1.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1507.1.18) · Pramāṇa
