Detailed explanation-1: -The correct answer is Ahimsa. The ideals at the heart of Buddhism are collectively known as the ‘Three Jewels’, or the ‘Three Treasures’. These are the Buddha (the yellow jewel), the Dharma (the blue jewel), and the Sangha (the red jewel). Thus, Ahimsa is not one of the “Three Jewels” of Buddhism.
Detailed explanation-2: -Triratna, (Sanskrit: “Three Jewels”) Pali Ti-ratana, also called Threefold Refuge, in Buddhism the Triratna comprises the Buddha, the dharma (doctrine, or teaching), and the sangha (the monastic order, or community).
Detailed explanation-3: -The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Astha Pitaka. Tripitaka is a collective term for three major categories of Buddhist canons especially Theravada tradition.
Detailed explanation-4: -So the third of the Three Jewels is the Sangha or the spiritual community. More broadly ‘sangha’ also refers to the people with whom we share our spiritual lives.
