Abhidhamma Pitaka

From Wikipitaka - The Completing Tipitaka

The Abhidhamma Pitaka is the last of the three divisions of the Tipitaka. The compilation of the Buddha's teachings classified as the Abhidhamma deals with the quintessence of the Doctrine in purely academic terms, without reference to individuals and events. Published in 12 volumes, the Abhidhamma is divided into seven treatises (known by their abbreviations as Sam, Vi, Dha, Pu, Ka, Ya, and Pa) as follows:

1. Dhammasangani 'Enumeration of Phenomena'

2. Vibhanga 'The Book of Divisions'

3. Dhatukatha 'Discussion with Reference to the Elements'

4. Puggalapannatti 'Designation of Individuals'

5. Kathavatthu 'Points of Controversy'

6. Yamaka 'The Book of Pairs'

7. Patthana 'The Book of Relations'
