In Buddhism
Theravada (major branch of Buddhism)
: Pali Kanon: Pali Proper NamesJanussoni visits the Buddha at Jetavana and asks him how it is that young men who have left the world under him should be able to live in solitude, in the depths of the forest, a joyless life. The Buddha answers that while yet a Bodhisatta he was assailed by the same doubts. Fear comes only to him whose heart is filled with desire and longing, and who is restless, witless, and drivelling.
But the man, who is pure, resolute, and free from corruptions of the heart, lives in confidence in the forest and develops the jhanas. The Buddha then describes how he passed through these stages of development before becoming the Enlightened One (M.i.16ff).
This sutta contains an account of the threefold lore (tisso vijja) of the Buddha (see Sp.i.116) and praises of the Sarana (Refuges) (Sp.i.172).
Theravāda is a major branch of Buddhism having the the Pali canon (tipitaka) as their canonical literature, which includes the vinaya-pitaka (monastic rules), the sutta-pitaka (Buddhist sermons) and the abhidhamma-pitaka (philosophy and psychology).
