Oct 28, 2015 at 23:15 | comment | added | Theravada | I don't know if you are aware but It was Sri Lankan monks (my countries monks) who took Buddhism from oral traditions to books for the first time.As for the question how many,Every monk in the world did it to that day.And it was categorized by a gathering of monks after the "parinibbana" (death) of lord Buddha. Hon. Ananda thero (the monk who took care of lord Buddha) had all in his mind which he recited.The rest who were gathered approved all of it and they went on to categorize it.
