B Correct answer
Explanation

The Tripitakas (meaning 'three baskets') are the primary sacred texts of Buddhism, containing the teachings of Gautama Buddha. They consist of three collections: Vinaya Pitaka (monastic rules), Sutta Pitaka (discourses of Buddha), and Abhidhamma Pitaka (philosophical analysis). Jainism has sacred texts called Agamas, while Hinduism has the Vedas, Upanishads, and other scriptures. Shaivism is a Hindu tradition, not a separate religion with Tripitakas.
