Answer by Suminda Sirinath S. Dharmasena for How did Buddha Explain the Creation Of the World?

How did Buddha Explain the Creation Of the World?

As you noted much of it found in Aggañña Sutta and related Suttas.

Which explanation is true? Buddha's or Scientists'?

There will be argument both for and against which is not the best format for this site.

The Buddha's teaching is eternal / universal while the scientists have theories which time to time get proven and disproven with new theories replacing the old. So it is best to take the Buddha's explanation. Having said this the Buddha sometimes describe thing metaphorically.
