The Pāli Canon is a collection of ancient Buddhist teachings that were written down by Buddhist monks in India around 2,000 years ago. The teachings are arranged in three baskets, known as the "Tipitaka." The Tipitaka includes teachings about meditation, mindfulness, and morality and provides guidance for Buddhists on how to live their lives. The teachings are considered important for Buddhists and are studied and practiced by many people around the world.
