4. Summary up Tipitaka: The Pali Tipitaka which is given the utmost authority in the Theravada School comprises Disciplinary Code for bhikkhus and bhikkhunis (Vinaya Pitaka), Discourses on spiritual development, social welfare and various other aspects (Suttanta Pitaka), higher teachings or Buddhist Psychology of mind and form (Abhidhamma). The Theravada Buddhism with its Buddhist community, culture propagation is basically guided by the Pali Tipitaka. According to the Buddhas Teachings refer to the word of the Buddha or what he said: Buddhavacana. It is essentially, then, to maintain the Buddhism is to preserve the word of the Buddha. So that; by the word of the Buddha are meant the Doctrine (Dhamma) and Discipline (Vinaya) set for and laid down by him. Not long before his final Nibbana, the Buddha himself said that not any one monk was to be appointed his successor as Teacher after his passing. Instead, he had it make known to all Buddhists that the Doctrine and Discipline would take his place. A great number of Buddhists even remember the exact wording in Pali: Yo vo ananda mayaa dhammo ca vinayo ca desito pa~n~natto so vo mamaccayena satthaa. Ananda, the discourses and the disciplines I have taught and laid down to all of you will be your teacher when I am gone. On this account, the word of the Buddha is both Buddhism and the dwelling place of the Teacher by virtue of maintaining and proclaiming the Doctrine and Discipline on his behalf. 5.

6. Brief story of Jivaka (Please read and write down in while taking exam whatever you understood) Jivaka led a privileged life in the palace. His friends, however, often teased him as he had no mother. Jivaka, who was embarrassed by the teasing, questioned his father about his origin. When he heard about his origins and his will to live he decided that he would one day grow up to be a preserver of life. He felt that he had no real heritage or family as he was only the adopted son of the prince. Physicians, however, were treated with great respect. Determined to earn the respect he felt he lacked due to his birth, Jivaka decided to go to the University of Takkasila to become a physician. Handing over his newly earned wealth to his adoptive father, Jivaka thanked him for his love, compassion, and caring. Prince Abhaya, however, returned all the wealth to Jivaka and informed him that he owed him naught as he was his true son and heir. He then told him that during his absence he had found out the full story of his origin. His mother, Salawathi, was the sought after courtesan of the kings and nobility. Wanting to retain her freedom, she had discarded the baby whom she felt would be a burden to her. Prince Abhaya had unknowingly adopted his own child as he had loved his son dearly even prior to knowing that he was in fact his own child. Prince Abhaya built a palace to serve as Jivakas residence and provided him with many servants. Jivaka often had to attend upon the Bhikkhus of the Sangha. Once, in Vaishali, the Bhikkhus were offered too much 'sweet food' for a long time, and became very sick with superfluity of humors in their body. Luckily, Jivaka at that time was present in that city. He attended upon the ill Bhikkhus and cured them all. As a famous physician, Jivaka was always loaded with engagements, but he never neglected the Buddha and his Sangha. Through the history of humankind, the physician career is much respected and well accepted in both the lay community and the order of Sanghas. Jivaka was the famous physician of the Buddha. Buddha delivered many suttas relating to his physician Jivaka. He attained the stage of Sotapanna after hearing many discourses delivered by Buddha. According to the sutta, Jivaka was trained by Sakka: Sakka decided to take a hand in the training of young Jivaka so that he would have celestial knowledge in the art of medicine. With this in view, He entered the body of Disapamok who was his teacher. The story of Jivaka teaches us the essence of Buddhism; that ones kamma is formed if done with intention.
