I didn't even know Buddhism had something called the Tipitika. I came across the Tipitika by accident in the library.
The bookstore is the reason why many people think Buddhism has no central text.
No, Religion section and a small selection of Authors on Buddhism.
No, small selection of buddhist books by "buddhists" who give their version of what they want Buddhism to be, with none containing the Tipitika.
