In the classification of references of Thripitaka, the same method has been used adding another number for the benefit of readers.
294.3 | Buddhism |
294.38 | Books of Buddhist Sources |
294.382 | Tripitaka |
294.3822 | VinayaPitaka |
294.3823 | SuttaPitaka |
294.3824 | AbhidammaPitaka |
This means the commentary (Samantapasadika) written the ParajikaPali, which is the first book of VinayaPitaka. Meanwhile Samantapasadikatika (Saratthadipani) is classified as 294.3822 1 a 1. Accordingly, on the basis of the traditional classification method of the tipitaka literature, a separate number has been included in a circle. That indicates the traditional tipitaka classification number. This will be both beneficial to the readers who are familiar with the traditional tipitaka classification method and to those who are familiar with the Dewey Decimal Classification method.
