Angas.<\/p>\n<p>The Angas are the 12 canonical texts of Jainism. They are the oldest texts of Jainism and are considered to be the most authoritative. The Angas are divided into two groups: the Agamas and the Upaangas. The Agamas are the more important of the two groups and contain the basic teachings of Jainism. The Upaangas are a collection of texts that deal with various aspects of Jainism, such as rituals, cosmology, and philosophy.<\/p>\n<p>The Angas were written in Prakrit, a language that was spoken in India at the time. They were originally written in verse, but were later translated into prose. The Angas are a valuable source of information about Jainism and its history. They provide insights into the beliefs and practices of Jains, as well as the social and political context in which Jainism developed.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Tripitakas are the three main canonical texts of Buddhism.<\/li>\n<li>Epics are long narrative poems that are an important part of Indian literature.<\/li>\n<li>Aryasutras are the basic texts of Hinduism.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Tripitakas&#8221;
