Note on the transliteration:
The transliteration system of the BP/TLB is based on the Unicode/UTF-8 system. However, there may be difficulties with some of the letters – particularly on PC/Windows-based systems, but not so much on the Mac. We have chosen the most accepted older and traditional systems of transliteration against, e.g, Wylie for Tibetan, since with Unicode it is possible, in Sanskrit and Tibetan, etc., to represent one sound with one letter in almost all the cases (excepting Sanskrit and Tibetan aspirated letters, and Tibetan tsa, tsha, dza). We thus do not use the Wylie system which widely employs two letters for one sound (ng, ny, sh, zh etc.).
 
Important:
We ask you in particular to note the use of the ’ apostrophe and not the ' representing the avagrāha in Sanskrit, and most important the ’a-chuṅ in Tibetan. On the Mac the ’ is Alt-M.

佛告光淨童子  汝行詣維摩詰問疾 
佛告光嚴童子  汝行詣維摩詰問疾 
爾時世尊告光嚴童子  汝應往詣無垢稱所問安其疾

The Buddha then said to the young Licchavi Prabhāvyūha,  "Prabhāvyūha, go to the Licchavi Vimalakīrti to inquire about his illness."

光嚴童子白言 世尊 我不堪任詣彼問疾  所以者何  憶念我昔於一時間 出廣嚴城  時無垢稱方入彼城  我為作禮問言 居士從何所來

Prabhāvyūha replied, "Lord, I am indeed reluctant to go to that good man to inquire about his illness.  Why?  Lord, I remember one day, when I was going out of the great city of Vaiśālī,  I met the Licchavi Vimalakīrti coming in.  He greeted me, and I then addressed him: ’Householder, where do you come from?’

He replied, ’I come from the seat of enlightenment.’
