what is the Buddhist version of the Christian bible?

Answer 1

if you mean collection of ancient jewish parables found in scriptures of judaism, christianity and islam or life descriptions of jesus from nazareth present in quran and new testament, then there are none. i do not recall any scripture of buddhist origin which contain any of those.

other than that, there sure are buddhist scriptures, yet generally they are not considered 'holy', except for some schools. they more are manuals, study books, not given truths to believe. they merely explain theory, which is a subject for individual application.

the collection of texts is called tripitaka or tipitaka, respectively in sanskrit and pali. these are ancient languages, now days not spoken. much like latin, yet even older than that. generally accepted collection consists of about 80000 scriptures, long and short. they all generally explain one same thing, just in different words. hardly there is a human who has read them all.

plus, there are plenty on not canonical texts, attributed to particular schools and even tripitaka content may vary from one school to another. there are many paths to one same goal and every school, as every practitioner, finds own path, for it is a very individual thing.

good luck to you.

Answer 2

There is no Buddhist equivalent of the Christian Bible. There are holy books such as the Tripitaka, but studying scriptures is not an essential part of Buddhism.

Answer 3

a million John four a million Dear peers, don't feel each and every spirit, however experiment the spirits to peer whether or not they are from God, because many false prophets have long past out into the arena. two This is the way you can appreciate the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come within the flesh is from God, three however each and every spirit that does now not acknowledge Jesus isn't from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, that you have heard is coming and even now's already on the earth. four You, dear youngsters, are from God and have conquer them, because the one that is in you is greater than the one that is on the earth. five They are from the arena and as a result speak from the point of view of the arena, and the arena listens to them. 6 We are from God, and whoever is aware of God listens to us; however whoever isn't from God does now not pay attention to us. This is how we appreciate the Spirit[a] of reality and the spirit of falsehood.
